The rise and spread of HIV is one of the worst health crises in the history of humankind. Every day, hundreds of people die and thousands more are infected by this preventable disease. Believing that there is no excuse for inaction, our mission is to curb the spread of HIV in India through educational initiatives in schools and the community at large, capacity building and cooperation with community based organizations, sound public health programs and measures, and the creation of a sustainable, multinational, and multicultural effort to fight the disease. We strive to do the following:
|
|
|
To teach an updated, accurate, fact based HIV/AIDS Curriculum in schools, community groups, and other venues within our means. |
|
|
|
|
|
To work with government agencies, non-profit agencies, non-government agencies, community based organizations, and private industry to promote HIV testing and counseling, HIV educational programs, and to offer support and advocacy for other relevant programs. |
|
|
To provide a rewarding and enjoyable volunteer program for American as well as Indian students that encourages further involvement in the fight against HIV/AIDS and the development of IAPA’s mission. |
