The HIV Prevention
Justice Alliance
is
a national network
of over 70 groups building a unified,
effective movement for HIV prevention
in the United States.
The Community HIV/AIDS Mobilization Project (CHAMP) is a
national initiative building a powerful community-based movement
bridging HIV/AIDS, human rights, and struggles for social, racial and economic
justice- which we call: HIV Prevention Justice.
CHAMP mobilizes people living with HIV,
community activists, policy advocates, academics and researchers in our
country, and links them with allies around the world.
CHAMP arms a new generation of leaders with tools and resources to
challenge and change HIV/AIDS prevention policies; to attack the root
causes of the epidemic such as poverty, homophobia and racism; and to
sustain and expand our movements for justice. We unite across
communities facing high rates of HIV, through community organizing,
strategy development, media efforts, and training in popular education,
history, critical thinking, and data analysis.
In the fall of 2009, our Board, staff and stakeholders came together to build a CHAMP strategic plan for 2010. As
a result, we are changing our structure to better meet our goals and
have a sustainable structure as an organization fighting for HIV
Prevention Justice. We presented on CHAMP's programs, achievements and goals for the coming year, including:
Building the HIV Prevention Justice Movement
Furthering AIDS Activism in the New
Political Context
Ensuring a Sustainable Network Focused on HIV in
the United States
