We encourage everyone to take this day to educate, engage, and celebrate the rich cultural heritage and contributions of African Americans. Thank you for your understanding and support.

🌈❤️ Protecting Our Community: The Importance of PrEP ❤️🌈

Hey everyone! Let's talk about something super important for our LGBTQ+ family: PrEP (Pre-exposure Prophylaxis). This daily pill can reduce the risk of HIV transmission by up to 99% when taken consistently. For a community that has been disproportionately affected by HIV, PrEP is a game-changer. It empowers us to take control of our sexual health and live with greater peace of mind.

By spreading the word about PrEP, we can ensure more people have access to this life-saving medication. Remember, knowledge is power, and together, we can create a healthier, safer future for everyone. 💪🏳️‍🌈✨

One tiny pill once a day reduces your risk of contracting HIV by up to 99%. Learn more at magiccityprep.org

Happy Pride from MCWC!

Magiccityprep.org is your one stop for beginning your PrEP journey with little to no out of pocket cost. Check it out today!
