Advocates for Youth  and its partners direct this observance.

NYHAAD educates the public about the impact of HIV/AIDS on youth and highlights the work youth do to strengthen the fight against the HIV/AIDS epidemic.

This day is a chance to thank the volunteers, community members, health professionals, and scientists working together to find a safe and effective preventive HIV vaccine. It is also a time to educate communities about the importance of preventive HIV vaccine research.

First observed on June 27, 1995, National HIV Testing Day (NHTD) is a day to encourage people to get tested for HIV, know their status, and get linked to care and treatment.

The 2021 theme -- “My Test, My Way,” -- emphasizes that there are different ways and places to get tested for HIV, including at home with a self-test. Partners can add a tagline to customize as they like. For example:
