30 YEARS OF ACTING UP TO END AIDS envisions a country and a world free of AIDS in the next generation. Our demands fall under the following broad issue themes:

-Ending the AIDS pandemic

-Defending and expanding access to health care and coverage

-Fighting for affordable HIV and hepatitis C drug prices and access

-Finding a cure for HIV/AIDS

-Defending the human rights of all oppressed communities in ending the AIDS crisis

-Ending HIV criminalization laws

At the 30 YEARS OF ACTING UP TO END AIDS action we will commit ourselves to resisting the current political environment based on fear-mongering, bigotry, and the disenfranchisement of vulnerable people, including people living with HIV and hepatitis C. We are still united in anger against policies that undermine people’s right to health care, and we embrace the new tidal wave of resistance and activism to re-commit to an end to AIDS in this generation!

Co-Supporters Include: Housing Works
