Hey Herp A Derpers!
Break the Stigma Day aims to reduce stigma's impact by promoting awareness of herpes statistics and education about transmission and stigma, while promoting acceptance for those who are living with herpes through anonymous and public storytelling.
Awareness, Education and Acceptance
Self-acceptance can be hard to digest at times but know you will overcome so much by destigmatizing yourself from the herpes stigma.
Throughout the week, we’ll be sharing a few videos about overcoming the social stigma of herpes. We invite you to share your experiences and stories too. Plus, sharing a special message from HANDS on Break the Stigma Day. This Day celebrates and embraces how much we can overcome in accepting who we are as individuals and being more than herpes.
Let’s empower each other by letting society know the need to break the stigma.
