HurricaneHIV Hurricane Relief Effort
 
In response to the destruction caused by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma across Southern states and U.S. territories, AIDS United is addressing the growing needs of agencies serving the HIV/AIDS community in those areas. 

From accessing HIV care, housing, food and clothing, people living with and affected by HIV in these communities need your support.

Four DOORWAYS staff members attended this year's United States Conference on AIDS (USCA) held in Washington DC. 

The four-day event, hosted by the National Minority AIDS Council was themed "family reunion" in celebration of the bond we share as we work together to end the epidemic. 

Attendees were offered critical insight into ways to learn and grow together, speak truth to power and end racism.
