ATAC Mission Statement
We are a national coalition of AIDS activists, many living with HIV/AIDS, working together to end the AIDS epidemic by advancing research on HIV/AIDS.
Goals
- To encourage greater and more effective involvement of people with HIV/AIDS in the decisions that affect their lives by identifying, mentoring and empowering treatment activists in all communities affected by the epidemic.
- To develop within all communities affected by HIV/AIDS and related coinfections the leadership to provide the knowledge and skills needed to advocate for improved research, treatment and access to care.
- To enable treatment activists to speak with a united, powerful voice to provide meaningful input into issues concerning HIV disease and related complications and coinfections.
- To facilitate communications and set agenda items:
- Between HIV/AIDS treatment activists and government, industry and academia in matters affecting research, treatment and access.
- Among HIV/AIDS treatment activists and the larger HIV community in keeping up to date with the latest developments in research, treatment and access.
