Women We Think 4 a Change: Guided by the values of courage, meaningful work, integrity and spiritual principles, our planning group of cis and trans women living with HIV embodies the attributes of compassion, wisdom and boldness to share their story and encourage self-empowerment for others. These same women promote their significance within the HIV/AIDS sector through individual and collective contributions of knowledge and learning. They lead with authority, openness, self-respect and loyalty to their fellow sisters. All women involved in the project walk in faith, demonstrating friendship, honesty, and living happily embraced though acts of love. This initiative offers educational opportunities and advocacy meetings for women and girls across the state of Ohio via in-person retreats, virtual planning meetings and virtual webinars.
