AIDS Action Committee's mission is threefold:
- To provide support services to people living with AIDS and HIV, as well as the people who love and care for them;
- To educate the general public, health care professionals, and individuals whose behavior could put them at high risk for HIV infection; and
- To advocate at the local, state, and federal levels for fair and effective AIDS public policy and funding.
Thanks to new treatments, people are living longer and healthier lives. Many AIDS Action clients are also living better lives because of the work and commitment of our extraordinary volunteers. However, the challenge continues. In order to provide service, education and advocacy for everyone affected by HIV and AIDS, we need people, just like you, to join us in the fight.
Because of our volunteers, we provide more services to clients, win more public policy victories, reach more people at risk and raise more dollars to support our work. In this day and age, when people are busier than ever and free time is a luxury, the generosity of our volunteers is an inspiration to all of us who come into contact with them.
- Direct Service - Check-In, Access, Hotline, HIV Health Library, and home services.
- Behind the Scenes - work in the development department, organize fundraising events, research funding sources or provide administrative support.
