Who We Are
Our coalition's strength lies in the diversity of our membership.
Members vary in size from individuals, to small organizations, to large
NGOs, and in skills from direct medical care, to education, awareness and
political advocacy.
While many members of the PAGAC work in the field of HIV/AIDS in a number
of capacities, for simplicity's sake they have been categorized according
to their primary activity or affiliation.
What We Do
As a recently formed coalition, our mission is still evolving and much of our work occurs through informal networking. We gather to share information on activities and advocacy alerts, and collectively sponsor larger community events. How to Learn More
