Thank you for visiting the Living Positive By Design MySpace page! I have lived with HIV for more than 20 years now, and have seen up close how devastating it can be for patients, friends, family and communities. The Living Positive By Design campaign seeks to help combat the stigma associated with HIV by engaging people in thoughtful conversation about the condition. I am excited to be launching this educational campaign in partnership with organizations that are committed to improving the lives of people living with HIV. At the Living Positive By Design events I will be hosting in several cities across the United States, I will be speaking about my experiences living with HIV and addressing the stigma still associated with the disease. I am excited to host a Living Positive By Design event in a city near you and hope to see you there!
Best, Jack
