AIDS Vancouver plays a special role in providing quality health care to people affected by HIV/AIDS living in the Lower Mainland. It is clearly more than just a community health care organization. It is an organization whose presence and continued strength is essential to the quality for life of this community and of each individual and family who draws on its services.

Our Agency is a vital community asset which everyone affected by HIV/AIDS can share, and in which we all have a stake.
