    Activity

    Sister Love Inc. operates various programs to deal with reproductive health issues facing African American women, primarily HIV/AIDS. One of these programs is the Healthy Love Workshop, an educational program where participants receive information about HIV/AIDS transmission and prevention, safer sex practices, sexuality, and reproductive health. 2

    In its Policy and Advocacy Program, Sister Love focuses on issues related to HIV/AIDS prevention treatment and care, sexual reproduction, and health disparities. 3 Sister Love Inc. also has a branch in South Africa called Sister Love International that runs the Innovative Strategies for Those At Risk Seeking High Impact Prevention and PrEP Program (also known as iSTARSHIPP). iSTARSHIPP is a Dreams Innovation Challenge project funded by the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), a five-year commitment by the U.S. government that works towards reducing HIV infections among high-risk persons in South Africa. 4
