Concurrent to the forum, FREE HIV Testing will be available and open to the general pubic in recognition of Black HIV AIDS Awareness Day 2015.  "We are all our brother's and Sister's Keeper," is this year's theme that also serves as a foundation for the Awareness Day Impact Summit being held during this testing opportunity.
