Health For All – Know Your Status – CAAN
Aboriginal AIDS Awareness Week Rationale & Theme
The Canadian Aboriginal AIDS Network (CAAN) has developed a theme for Aboriginal AIDS Awareness Week (AAAW) for December 1 – 6, 2017 that parallels the international theme for World AIDS Day, Know Your Status.
Health For All – Know Your Status During AAAW, Indigenous people across Canada will share lessons
learned in order to build community readiness and inform culturally safe approaches to wholistic testing, care and treatment. Wholistic means in a manner that reflects Indigenous cultures and traditional knowledge, and also the unique social, spiritual, economic and political needs of specific communities.
