About this organization
Mission
The North Carolina AIDS Action Network improves the lives of people living with HIV/AIDS and affected communities through outreach and public education, policy advocacy and community-building to increase visibility and mutual support of people living with HIV/AIDS throughout our state.
About
Our programs build the capacity of the communities most affected by HIV to be effective and involved advocates for change. Through community education and outreach events targeting people living with HIV and those at disproportionate risk for HIV, we've built a statewide network with over 13,00 active Action Team members who have advocated for responsible HIV policies and educated the public over the last 9 years. All of our work prioritizes engagement with the communities most impacted by HIV, including gay & bi men, communities of color, especially young gay/bi/same gender loving black/African-American men, and the trans community.In response to NCAANs advocacy, the NC HIV Medication Assistance Program eliminated its waiting list and restored the full formulary of covered medications, and policy makers have implemented several new components of the program over the last four years that have increased access to full health insurance programs. In 2017, NCAAN successfully led a legislative campaign to secure designated state funding for Hepatitis testing and linkage to the cure. NCAAN also coordinated a coalition effort that successfully modernized the state's HIV criminal law in 2018, and educated people living with HIV, medical providers, and key partners about the new law over the course of the year. We have a number of programs designed to increase the capacity of those living with HIV and AIDS to advocate and educate state and community level leaders about HIV policy. The ADAP Story Project has gathered dozens of stories in the last five years from North Carolinians who have been positively impacted by ADAP. Our Speaking Positively Advocates and other members directly affected by HIV have shared their stories through blogs, letters to the editor, and e-blasts, and have spoken to reporters for news stories across the state. We regularly partner with other nonprofits working in racial and social justice to include the perspective of those living with HIV in their events and public policy campaigns.Within the last year:128 volunteers gave time and energy to reach out to new members at events across North Carolina, educate the public, keep our database updated, and keep their fellow members engaged.111 people from across the state gathered for a full day of workshops, action, and community-building at the Building Power Across the Spectrum, the 2018 HIV Advocacy Conference in Durham. 22 people from across the state attended Getting PrEPared: Accelerating HIV Prevention Advocacy in NC, a community conversation on HIV treatment and prevention for World AIDS Day held at the NC A&T University in Greensboro. 99 people from across the state gathered for legislative meetings and advocacy at the North Carolina General Assembly at HIV Speaks on Jones Street, the 2017 HIV Advocacy Day. Over 1,000 people signed on to the Cover Me Petition and other campaigns, asking Governor Roy Cooper and the NC General Assembly to ensure that every North Carolinian living with and at risk for HIV has access to comprehensive health care.Through partnership and coalitions, we educated policy makers and the general public about the need to close the Medicaid coverage gap in North Carolina, and the benefit it would have for HIV treatment and prevention efforts.
