Facing AIDS was launched for World AIDS Day in 2008 to raise awareness and reduce the stigma associated with HIV/AIDS. According to the National HIV/AIDS Strategy, "The stigma associated with HIV remains extremely high and fear of discrimination causes some Americans to avoid learning their HIV status, disclosing their status, or accessing medical care."
