Nancy Wyman was a strong supporter of ACT and we were saddened to hear of her recent passing. She fought beside us for many years and joined us at AIDS walks, at the Capitol for HIV/AIDS awareness day and dazzled us on the red carpet at Oscar Night in her sparkly shoes. The world is dimmer but her bright light shines on! 

We are currently asking for donations to support our new Advancing Futures program, an initiative designed to help people living with HIV explore employment and self-development opportunities. Funds raised will provide transportation to job interviews, training, and other employment related activities. Learn More or Make a Donation.
