AIDS Prevention Community Investment Program

The AIDS Prevention Community Investment Program was established by City Council in 1987 to support community initiatives to prevent the spread of HIV. The purpose of the AIDS Prevention Community Investment Program is to support strategic, targeted education programs to influence behaviours and situations that put people at risk of acquiring HIV thereby reducing HIV transmission. Applications are welcomed for projects that address high-risk behaviours, enhance access to HIV/AIDS prevention education and/or address social barriers. The AIDS Review Panel reviews applications and makes recommendations for funding to the Board of Health.
