(AIDS Alliance)*

 

AIDS Alliance for Children, Youth, and Families was established in 1994 to give voice to the needs of women, children, youth, and families living with and affected by HIV and AIDS.

With DASH funding, AIDS Alliance has developed the Girls 4 HOPE (Health Opportunities, Prevention, and Education) Program to build the capacity of HIV prevention program staff from community-based organizations (CBOs) to initiate, expand, and improve HIV prevention programs for African American and Latina teen girls and their parents.
