First observed in 1988, World AIDS Day provides organizations and individuals across the world the opportunity to bring attention and awareness to the HIV epidemic and to end HIV stigma.

90% of people living with HIV knowing their HIV status
90% of people who know their HIV-positive status on antiretroviral therapy (ART)
90% of people living with HIV on ART achieving viral suppression
ZERO Stigma
The City of Phoenix needs your help to address the HIV/AIDS epidemic.

More than 70 high HIV burden cities around the world have since signed the Paris Declaration on Fast-Track Cities Ending AIDS and engaged Mayors and other political leaders, affected communities, civil society, city health officials, clinical and service providers, and other stakeholders to accelerate their local AIDS responses.
