Today marks National Women & Girls HIV & AIDS Awareness Day, an opportunity to focus our attention on the impact of HIV and AIDS on women and girls in the United States.
This year, we encourage readers to check out our interview with Beverley and Vanetta of the Initiative for Multipurpose Prevention Technologies to learn more about the importance of giving women and girls everywhere the tools to meet their sexual and reproductive health needs. As Beverley and Vanette made clear in our interview with them a few weeks ago, “Advocacy is key…With over two dozen products in the various stages of clinical development, we firmly believe in the promise of multipurpose prevention technologies to improve the lives of women, girls, and families around the world.”
