Join RAHMA (Reaching All HIV+ Muslims in America) for The RAHMA Experience, an evening bringing together faith, fashion, wellness, HIV awareness, and community at Howard University.

The RAHMA Experience is more than an event, it’s an opportunity to gather, connect, celebrate our community, and create space for conversations that matter.

Guests will enjoy a vibrant community marketplace before coming together for a shared opening and then experiencing specially curated programming for men and women.

Women will experience RAHMA on the Runway, a women-only modest fashion and wellness experience celebrating style, confidence, and sisterhood.

Men will pull up a chair at The Barbershop, a barbershop-inspired experience featuring spoken word, and real conversations around men’s health, HIV awareness, faith, masculinity, and community.

We’ll come back together for Beyond the Stigma: Faith, HIV & Our Community, a powerful community conversation exploring HIV, faith, stigma, compassion, wellness, and the role each of us can play in creating healthier and more informed communities.

Come for the experience. Stay for the conversation. Leave inspired to make a difference.
