PrEP for All Ages
The New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) AIDS Institute is excited to announce the official theme for PrEP Aware Week 2024 honoring PrEP across the lifespan: PrEP for All Ages.
PrEP for All Ages redefines what it means to take ownership of your health, no matter what season of life you're in. Whether you're younger or older, single or partnered, career-focused or retired, exploring your sexuality, or simply enjoying sexual pleasure - PrEP is for people of all ages and in all phases of life experiences.
Together, we celebrate sexual health, safety, and pleasure in all seasons of life.
Learn how PrEP is right for you!
What is PrEP Aware Week?
PrEP Aware Week is a public health education campaign in New York that promotes the routine use of Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) to prevent HIV infection. The campaign features eight ambassadors from across the state that represent the diverse experiences of New Yorkers and of those that can benefit from PrEP.
This year, PrEP Aware Week will be observed from October 21-27. During that time, a host of in-person and virtual events and activities will occur, with the objective of boosting awareness and knowledge of PrEP (Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis), among priority populations, as a highly effective HIV prevention method.
Learn more about PrEP, find shareable social media graphics and messages, and help reduce stigma around accessing PrEP for HIV prevention.
PrEP Aware Week is supported by the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) AIDS Institute.
