Scenes from Thursday night’s 𝑵𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒂𝒍 𝑾𝒆𝒆𝒌 𝒐𝒇 𝑷𝒓𝒂𝒚𝒆𝒓 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑯𝒆𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒐𝒇 𝑯𝑰𝑽/𝑨𝑰𝑫𝑺 𝑨𝒏𝒏𝒖𝒂𝒍 𝑫𝒊𝒏𝒏𝒆𝒓, hosted by the Economic Opportunity Council of Suffolk.

Held at Dominican Village in Amityville, this year’s gathering was the largest to date, bringing together faith leaders, advocates, community members, and individuals who shared powerful lived experiences with HIV.

The evening reflected the spirit of the National Week of Prayer movement founded by The Balm in Gilead — combining education, compassion, faith, and community dialogue to address HIV/AIDS while supporting healing and understanding.

From moving personal stories to music and fellowship, the event reminded everyone that when communities come together with empathy and purpose, healing and hope grow stronger. ❤️

🌸 This is the 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐚 𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐫-𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 spotlighting organizations that have advanced women’s equality and strengthened the movement for gender justice.

Founded in 1966, the 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐎𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐳𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐖𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧 (𝐍𝐎𝐖) is one of the largest feminist advocacy organizations in the United States. NOW has played a pivotal role in shaping national conversations around equal pay, reproductive rights, civil rights, and ending violence against women.

Through advocacy, public engagement, and policy reform, NOW has helped move the country closer to gender equity in leadership, the workplace, and public life.

Women’s History Month reminds us that progress is built through persistent advocacy — and that the work continues.
