September 27th marks the annual observance of National Gay Men's HIV/AIDS Awareness Day (NGMHAAD).

As you plan activities or outreach for NGMHAAD, check out these resources below and find resources on ending the HIV epidemic:

• HIV.gov:
  • National Gay Men’s HIV/AIDS Awareness Day resource page (includes the logo, fact sheets and more)
  • Timeline of HIV and AIDS (for the history of the epidemic, with content about the involvement of community members)
  • Guide to Planning Awareness Day Activities

We invite you to follow HIV.govExit Disclaimer and CDCExit Disclaimer on Twitter. We’ll be using #NGMHAAD to continue our long-running conversations about the epidemic’s impact on gay and bisexual men and how to take action in response to HIV.

We also suggest you share information about:

• The Ready, Set, PrEP program, a national program that provides free PrEP medications to those who qualify.
• The HIV Testing Sites & Care Services Locator. Just enter a ZIP code and find services for HIV testing, care, and treatment (including access to PrEP); housing; mental health/substance use; and family planning.
