While it focused on a fun activity, the core of the campaign was the heart-wrenching videos of survivors and their families explaining the brutal reality of the disease. The Ethics of Sharing

Sharing trauma can be re-traumatizing. Campaigns must ensure survivors have access to emotional support throughout the process.
