AIDS Vancouver
AIDS Vancouver is changing our purpose, values, and name in March 2024, after a year-long community process called Vision Our Future. We will remain an HIV-specific organization, with a renewed focus on supporting and empowering our communities, and responding to HIV and HIV stigma. As one of the first HIV organizations in Canada, we are excited to continue our commitment to addressing HIV, even as we update our name, purpose, and values.
As we get closer to our new purpose and brand, our commitment is that the best parts of us will stay the same, and we will meet the challenge of being more accountable to our values, and welcoming to all our communitiees. In particular, the work we do with HIV-negative people will align with the leadership of people living with HIV, who founded the very concept of prevention.
Program Summary
In addition to providing clinical supervision to 10 case managers and one Manager of Peer Navigation, this position provides leadership to key programs at AIDS Vancouver including:
• The Grocery Program, open to people living with HIV who are in need of additional food to supplement their regular diets. This program opens to clients for approximately 80 days each year, hosts monthly client meetings, is supported by 10-15 volunteers, and conducts an annual grocery survey.
• The Corner, a confidential drop-in program operated in partnership with Vancouver Coastal Health, and the Substance Use Support Group which uses a contingency management approach
• Friends of May pairs passionate volunteers with older adults living with HIV/AIDS. Friends of May offers the chance for cross-generational sharing of knowledge, experiences, activism, companionship, and fun. This program is a new take on past AIDS Vancouver programs known as the Buddy Program and Care Teams.
