Community-led HIV Prevention Model
We presented our community-led HIV prevention model at the Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections (CROI) 2025, highlighting how a community-driven approach can significantly improve access to PrEP and PEP without stigma or barriers.
We are proud to be the first non-medical Mexican presenters at the prestigious CROI conference. This milestone represents a significant shift towards recognizing the vital role that community-led initiatives play in HIV prevention and treatment access.
This video was presented before our CROI talk, showcasing the human stories behind our community-led prevention model.
