Overdose Awareness Day — Thank You! 💜

Huge thanks to everyone who came out for Overdose Awareness Day on Monday, Aug 31! Our team connected with so many community members for harm reduction resources, and together we provided 50 HIV tests! A new record for a single LFCHD event!

Beyond the numbers, days like this open doors to other services and resources people may not have had access to before.

Congratulations to our incredible team for making this happen! 🎉💙

National Faith HIV/AIDS Awareness Day Recap ❤️

Thank you to everyone who joined us Sunday at Grace United Church for National Faith HIV/AIDS Awareness Day! Together with community partner Dawn Webb, we offered free, confidential HIV testing, blood pressure screenings, and prevention health education — all in support of reducing HIV stigma within faith communities.

We were also glad to have the Sexual Violence Resource Center of the Bluegrass onsite connecting attendees with additional support.

Thank you to Grace United Church and everyone who came out to prioritize their health! 💙
