U.S. Positive Women’s Network, a project of WORLD, is a network of HIV-positive women and our allies working to improve the quality of women’s lives by supporting HIV-positive women as leaders and sparking federal policy change.
The mission of the PWN is to prepare and involve HIV-positive women, including transgender women, in all levels of policy and decision-making to improve the quality of women’s lives, by:
- Combating HIV-related stigma and demonstrating that HIV-positive women are part of the solution;
- Training and supporting HIV-positive women leaders;
- Creating and sharing tools for women and HIV advocates; and
- Mobilizing for strategic campaigns to change policies
The PWN applies a gender equality and human rights lens to the HIV epidemic to achieve federal policies grounded in the reality of women’s lived experiences.
