Notice to Readers: National HIV Testing Day, June 27, 2002
The National Association of People with AIDS will sponsor the eighth annual National HIV Testing Day on June

HIV counseling, testing, and referral to encourage persons at risk for HIV infection to know their status and to reduce their
risks for HIV transmission.

efforts during June 23--29. Activities can include sponsoring mobile HIV counseling, testing, and referral units; participating
