Project TIES had a prominent presence at the 2025 Educational Conference of the Puerto Rico Association of Health Educators (AESPR), delivering a clear message: talking about HIV remains a priority in health education.


Among the key topics highlighted, the Project TIES team shared—at its booth—information about what HIV is, Rapid Initiation of Antiretroviral Therapy (Rapid ART), and which clinics located in San Juan offer treatment to individuals who receive a positive HIV diagnosis.


This marked the first time Project TIES participated in the AESPR Educational Conference, reaffirming its commitment to collaborating with diverse organizations to expand access to HIV-related information. The Educational Conference served as an ideal platform to continue strengthening partnerships, updating knowledge, and reminding participants that ending HIV in Puerto Rico is a collective effort in which health education plays an essential role.
