Chronic pain may impact as many as 50-85% of people living with HIV. Yesterday was #WorldAIDSDay, and we’d like to acknowledge with gratitude all those working to address the issue of pain in HIV, including BCC3 Study - HIV Health, Equity & Aging Research, the Canadian HIV/AIDS and Chronic Pain Society, British Columbia Centre for Excellence in HIV/AIDS and HIV Global Pain Task Force.

The stigma around substance use is one of the biggest barriers for people seeking and receiving treatment for substance use disorders. Substance use disorder is a treatable, medically diagnosed, health condition. By using person-first language, you can begin to change the way you think about and treat people with substance use disorder. ➡️Learn more about reducing stigma around substance use from our webpage: https://www.ccsa.ca/stigma #NAAW2024
