October 15 is also Latino AIDS Awareness Day. Univision Communications Inc. and the Kaiser Family Foundation  unveiled the second phase of “SOY…” (I AM…), the groundbreaking Spanish-language media campaign featuring the personal stories of a diverse group of Latinos living with HIV and their loved ones. The new campaign materials will debut on the Univision Network, the Telefutura Network and Galavision in conjunction with National Latino AIDS Awareness Day (NLAAD) on October 15th and continue throughout 2010. ..”SOY…” includes 28 original public service ads (PSAs) for television and radio and Spanish-language HIV/AIDS information and resources available online through a dedicated website (http://univision.com/content/channel.jhtml?secid=4581) and via a toll-free Spanish-language hotline (1-866-TU-SALUD). The campaign was developed as part of ¡Entérate de VIH y SIDA! (Get the Facts about HIV and AIDS!), a long-standing public information partnership established in 2001 between Univision and the Kaiser Family Foundation to provide culturally relevant Spanish-language information and resources about HIV/AIDS and sexual health. ..Also see  the campaign’s YouTube page: http://www.youtube.com/soycampaign
