AIDS VANCOUVER ISLAND
"AIDS Vancouver Island serves the needs of people infected and affected by HIV and hepatitis C on Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands. We take evidence-based action to prevent infection, provide support, and reduce stigma.
MISSION: AIDS Vancouver Island serves the needs of people infected and affected by HIV and hepatitis C. We take evidence-based action to prevent infection, provide support, and reduce stigma.
VISION: Our vision is of a world free of HIV and hepatitis C. Until that time, those most at risk in our community continue to be marginalized - not only by their disease, but also by stigma and discrimination, poverty, and despair. As we fight these diseases, we join with those we serve to provide services based on consideration and respect and to provide visibility and a voice in the community."
