APLA Health announced the 38th annual AIDS Walk Los Angeles will be held on Sunday, October 16 in West Hollywood. 

For the first time since 2019, we're returning to the streets on October 16. The theme of this year's AIDS Walk LA is "Be All Over It". We're over talking. We're over people living with HIV not in care. We're over the assault on our rights happening across the nation.

We're calling on individuals and organizations who have had enough to make a plan to "Be All Over It" with us and show the world that you'll no longer stay silent on the issues you feel passionate about.

"Our passion and energy for change is still as strong today as it was at the very first AIDS Walk Los Angeles," said Craig E. Thompson, CEO of APLA Health. "Only now, we see a world in which attentions have been diverted elsewhere, where healthcare rights are threatened at the highest levels, and where access to quality healthcare isn't guaranteed for all. For 39 years, APLA Health has been doing the work to increase access to care, provide resources for underserved communities, and fight for HIV advocacy. Unfortunately, there is substantial progress to be made in the fight for healthcare justice."

AIDS Walk Los Angeles is the pioneer fundraising walk that raises vital funds and builds support and awareness of the continuing need to address the HIV/AIDS epidemic in Los Angeles County. Funds raised at AIDS Walk LA directly supports APLA Health other HIV/AIDS service organizations across Los Angeles County. There are many ways to participate at AIDS Walk Los Angeles including walking, volunteering and sponsorship.
