Organization:
Covenant Baptist Church
The Covenant Baptist UCC HIV/AIDS Ministry exists to promote HIV/AIDS education, advocate on behalf of those infected/affected by HIV/AIDS, and effect change in the behavior of the African American community in the Metropolitan DC area. We seek to inform the church and community about HIV/AIDS through the following:
Our Conversation Center provides a safe space to discuss HIV/AIDS and obtain information about local services and events concerning HIV/AIDS
Recognize the national HIV/AIDS awareness days: Black Church Week of Prayer for the Healing of AIDS, National Black AIDS Awareness Day, National Women and Girls Awareness Day, National HIV Testing Day, and World AIDS Day
Partner with local organizations to conduct HIV 101 workshops and other community events.
