AIDS Action Day 2007

On AIDS Action Day, March 6, 2007, some 80 advocates trained and coordinated by the Minnesota AIDS Project met with their legislators, comprising 38% of the Minnesota legislative body, to support honest HIV prevention and to stop HIV. Over 100 people attended the AIDS Action Day Program in the Capitol Rotunda to hear speakers from the community raise awareness and visibility about HIV prevention and treatment issues.

View coverage of AIDS Action Day in the Twin Cities Public Television program Almanac: At the Capitol with host Mary Lahammer. Midway through the program, Scott Bilodeau, MAP senior development associate, shares his story about why HIV prevention and services matter:
