Backgrounder: ACT -- AIDS Committee of Toronto
Since 1983, ACT has responded to the changing needs of the communities it serves through education and support programs.
ACT provides support services that empower men, women and youth living with HIV to achieve self-determination, informed decision-making, independence, and overall well-being. We do this through counselling, providing information, social support activities and programs that help people living with HIV return to work.
ACT works with gay men, women and youth to increase their knowledge, skills and resilience in the face of HIV, and to reduce HIV transmission. We work with our communities to develop information about HIV, provide outreach and education, and create opportunities for community members to increase their skills.
Today in Toronto, more people than ever are living with HIV and every day two more people are infected with the virus. So our work is far from over. With your help, ACT can continue to take action against HIV/AIDS.
