POSITIVELY AWARE Magazine Announces "A Day with HIV in America" Photo Essay, Illustrating Lives of Americans Living with HIV

To commemorate World AIDS Day,
POSITIVELY AWARE magazine is compiling a photo essay entitled
"A Day with HIV in America."
On September 21, people from all across the country, both HIV-positive and negative, care providers, lawmakers, advocates, families, and friends will take a snapshot of a moment from their everyday life.

September 15, 2010 - Chicago, IL - The photo essay hopes to present a portrait of our world and to put a face on HIV/AIDS in the U.S., in an effort to de-stigmatize life with HIV.

Selected photos will appear in a special section of the November/December issue of POSITIVELY AWARE. Additional photo submissions will be available for viewing at www.adaywithhivinamerica.com. Social media users can join others who are involved in the project on the Facebook group "A Day with HIV in America," and also take part in the conversation on Twitter at twitter.com/A_Day_with_HIV.

Using a digital camera or cell phone, the photos will capture a scene:

Getting ready for work. Hanging out with friends. Spending a quiet moment alone. Caring for someone with HIV. The idea is to come up with the person's own response to the question, "What does it mean to live with HIV?" Photos are to be submitted by September 23 to artdirector@positivelyaware.com. Submissions must include the personšs name (and the names of anyone else in the photo), phone number (of all participants), HIV status (optional), and a caption describing the scene, giving the location and time of day the picture was taken. Signed release forms will also be required for submissions to be considered.
