Social Media Toolkit

This year's theme is HIV Prevention Starts With Me. Everyone has a role to play in HIV prevention — women, men, community organizations, health care providers, those who are HIV-negative, and those who are living with HIV. That's why we're encouraging everyone to take action and say, "HIV prevention starts with me."

We have created a set of custom NWGHAAD graphics that you can use with the sample tweets and posts below. Because this year's theme is about what each of us can do to prevent HIV, we also encourage you to use them with your own messages that are most relevant to your followers, members, and partners.

Use the hashtag: #NWGHAAD

Follow @womenshealth and retweet any #NWGHAAD tweets that you find helpful.

Tag us: @womenshealth , @SaludDLaMujer ( for Spanish), and @girlshealth.
