In Today's In-Brief:
At HIV Law Project's Facebook page, you can connect to other people who are like-minded, passionate and want to make a difference in the fight against HIV/AIDS. You will also get invitations to events and discover new ways to get involved and support the important work that we do. Come on over and write on our wall or start a discussion! And while you are on our Facebook page, we invite you to join our cause. Causes allow you to become a public supporter of the work of HIV Law Project. You will be able to help us take action on important policy issues and legislation, become a voice for social justice, and if you feel adventurous you can become a top recruiter and be featured in our main cause page. This is an easy and fun way to support the HIV/AIDS cause. Why are we bringing this to your attention? because we hope you will:
If you need help along any step of the way, befriend Michael Pankow or Rosita Cortez, our official reps, to ask questions, get advice, and stay up to date on HIV Law Project news! So why are you still here? Go! Check it out and let us know what you think. GOT TWITTER? FOLLOW HIV LAW PROJECT Want to make a positive impact in the lives of thousands of people in less than 10 seconds? Post a Tweet supporting the work of HIV Law Project What is Twitter? It is a simple service (a microblogging site) that helps you share and discover what is happening in real time. Why is it important? Twitter is now the third most popular social network, behind Facebook and MySpace (Compete, 2009) with over a million users each month. Can Twitter Save Lives? Probably not. But, it gives us the opportunity to let others know about the important work that we do each day at HIV Law Project. Ways You Can Help If you are on Twitter:
Remember: you can be a social media change agent, and the best part: it does not cost you anything and it literally takes less than 10 seconds. Join the fun, be part of the conversation @hivlawproject. What is social media? If you've ever read a blog, joined an online discussion group or uploaded a photo to Flickr, you've engaged in social media. Social media is an umbrella term for an open platform (Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, Blogs) where people can share, change or otherwise participate in the site's content. People of all ages and professions now read blogs, tag articles, join online discussion groups, have profiles on professional social networking sites and post video files. At HIV Law Project we believe that our supporters (volunteers, donors, clients and staff) are an important part of our organization. Together, we are making a positive impact on the lives of people who desperately need our help. Everything we have accomplished would not have been possible without your support. HIV Law Project wants you to tell our story, collaborate, and engage in co-creation. We have created the "vehicles" or "tools" hoping that you can use them and say "yes, this is an organization I believe in and I'm proud to tell my friends and colleagues that I care about its cause."

HIV Law Project is exempt from tax under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of the United States and qualifies for the maximum charitable contribution deduction by donors.

Please add news@hivlawproject.org to your list so that our messages don't end up in "junk mail" or the "trash." HIV Law Project |
