The Island Health STOP HIV/AIDS Program is excited to announce a call for proposals for our Community Grants. We will be awarding grants of up to $10,000 each to communities or organizations who are interested in planning and delivering activities addressing HIV prevention, testing and engagement into care and treatment.
Special focus will be given to specific priority populations who experience a higher burden of disease or who may face additional barriers to accessing or engaging with HIV services. These include: Indigenous peoples (First Nations, Inuit and Metis), women, youth, and Two-Spirit, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer people.
Information on how to apply can be found in the attached application guide. We want to ensure a supportive and transparent process.

Completed applications must be received by 4:00 PM Pacific time on February 26th, 2023 and can be emailed to [email protected]
