Living with HIV: Hattie's Journey Video

When Hattie learned she was HIV positive, it took some time for her to overcome the stigma that came with the diagnosis. With the help of family and friends, she was able to realize all she had to live for and now faces each day with the support of her loved ones -- and a lot of laughter. Hattie works with the AIDS Service Center in New York, NY. To find an AIDS service organization near you for support, visit http://www.AIDS.gov/locator.
