The selection of Zachary Thompson, Director of DCHHS, Ivan Nolen, Community Activist and Leader exemplifies AIDS Walk South Dallas’ theme "Supporting Our Future”, said, Auntjuan Wiley, AWSD Event Chair.  “With over 18, 000 people living with HIV/AIDS in Dallas County, this is not just a walk for the cause; this is about CHANGE in our community”, said Auntjuan Wiley, AWSD Event Chair , who has already begun working around the clock in an effort to gain exposure and excitement about this remarkable opportunity once again.

In our 6th year, we continue to bring awareness of HIV/AIDS and raise funds to support local organizations that offer services to those affected by this disease. Funds raised will benefit the programs and services of AIDS Walk South Dallas, Inc. (https://www.facebook.com/AIDSWalkSouthDallasInc/) and The Afiya Center whose mission is to end reproductive oppression among marginalized black women and girls through re-education and engendering empowerment of sexual and reproductive health disparities including HIV.
