“We are excited to have Justine join us. She brings with her a wealth of knowledge and experience that will be very impactful.

I’m energized to bring my experience to Southern AIDS Coalition and join the team in continuing to build strong and community-focused Southern solutions to the HIV epidemic,” said Ingram.

Ingram has built a career dedicated to bringing awareness to specific sexual health needs and concerns of vulnerable communities. She steered a nationally recognized video project, The Conversation: Transmen and Their Sexual Health Needs. Her goal is to use her platform at Southern AIDS Coalition to aid in influencing all communities across the South to invest in increasing the health outcomes of our most vulnerable populations.
