It’s very normal to worry about other people’s reactions to our HIV diagnosis.

For many, perceived HIV stigma is the hardest part of their diagnosis, but this needn’t hold us back from living will with HIV - and living life to the fullest!

“I am afraid that the church will reject me once I reveal my diagnosis.”

Fear of rejection from our church community is common, but many churches are increasingly welcoming those living with HIV.
