Episode 09: Hi I'm Matt and I'm HIV Positive

Matthew just recently hit his 10 year mark having HIV. He had gone to the doctor for Mono treatment at 17 to find out he was HIV positive. Matthew shares his experience testing positive, what he went through upon diagnosis and how life has been since then for him. 

Matt is the founder of The Scarlet Ribbon Project a storytelling project whose goal is to end the stigma that those living with HIV face on a daily basis. By sharing our stories, struggles and experiences, we plan to put a face to the epidemic and show the world that there is more to us behind our status!
