Advocate Mentor Alliance Sessions Strengthen Community, Connection, and Knowledge
Advocate Mentor Alliance Sessions Strengthen Community, Connection, and Knowledge
At SISU Empowering Others, our Advocate Mentor Alliance sessions have been a resounding success—bringing together individuals who are not only eager to learn but also passionate about empowering each other.
These sessions have become a vibrant space where participants build community, share resources, and offer mutual support. Together, they are forming bonds that go beyond the classroom, creating a network of peer advocates committed to positive change.
So far, AMA participants have explored crucial topics such as:
HIV 101 – Understanding the basics of HIV, transmission, prevention, and treatment.
A Timeline of Milestones in HIV Care and Advocacy – Recognizing the powerful journey of those who came before us and the advancements that have shaped today's care.
U=U: Undetectable = Untransmittable – Learning how science empowers individuals living with HIV and breaks down stigma.
Advocate Mentor Alliance (AMA) is a powerful initiative that aligns with our mission to empower, educate, and uplift individuals within our community. AMA is more than a program—it is a space of transformation, where participants come together to learn, share, and grow into advocates for themselves and others.
Through engaging discussions, peer support, and educational sessions, participants gain not only knowledge but also the confidence and tools to lead change in their own communities. Whether it's learning the facts about HIV, understanding the timeline of advocacy and progress, or breaking down stigma through the science of U=U (Undetectable = Untransmittable), each AMA session brings people closer to becoming empowered, informed leaders.
This work would not be possible without the incredible generosity and belief in our mission from our partners. We are deeply grateful to Broadway Cares for funding this life-affirming program. Their support allows us to build safe, inclusive spaces where individuals can heal, find purpose, and support one another on the path toward advocacy and community change.
Because of Broadway Cares, SISU is able to foster connections that extend far beyond our sessions—connections rooted in compassion, resilience, and the belief that everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive.
Together, we are building something bigger than ourselves. Because when we come together, we rise together.
