Founded in 1991, ACRIA envisions a world where all people with HIV receive the treatment, care, and support they need to lead healthy, productive lives and where new transmissions of the virus have been eliminated. As pioneers of HIV research, prevention, and health education, created and funded by creative communities, we get lifesaving information to the people who need it the most.
