In honor of HLTSAD 2025, we bring you a sampling of recent writings by or in conversation with long-term HIV survivors from The Well Project's community of bloggers, staff, and community advisory board members.

I have lost count of the number of years that I have come to this space to cheer for honorees, attend or present workshops, take in tailored updates on the HIV epidemic among women and girls from renowned experts in the field, meet new collaborators, and catch up with longtime comrades.

“Given the uncertainty of federal funding, the threats to bodily autonomy and programs for those living with HIV, it is more and more important to be amongst those who share my lived experience and my desire to elevate the lived experience of others.”

In our final session of WATCH! 2.0, we discussed clinical trials, where women have been in research and where we must go, and some advocacy tools needed to get there.

Challenges, changes, and cancellation of funding cannot truly suppress the brilliance and determination of the scientists, researchers, and community members that are striving toward improving the lives of those living with HIV.

In the sixth session of WATCH! 2.0, we explore growing older with HIV and our overall wellness.

In the fifth session of WATCH! 2.0, we dig into what conception, pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period can look like for parents living with HIV.

We are deeply grateful for Gilead Science's ongoing support, which bolsters our commitment to ultimately change the course of the HIV epidemic...one woman at a time.

In session four of the WATCH! 2.0 series, we will arm you with the tools and knowledge you need to take action around your sexual health.

The Well Project stakeholder liaison and A Girl Like Me blogger, Bridgette Picou, shares how she helps women advocate for themselves in this POZ cover feature.
