The Ontario AIDS Network is a province-wide coalition of diverse community-based organizations working together to establish a just and effective response to AIDS and dedicated to enhancing the quality of life of persons living with HIV/AIDS in Ontario.

The Ontario AIDS Network is the provincial association of over 50 HIV/AIDS service organizations (ASOs) across the province. These ASOs are crucial to Ontario's HIV/AIDS education, prevention care and support efforts. In addition, the network has an active caucus of approximately 350 people with HIV/AIDS (PHAs) involved in its governance and activities.

As the provincial organization representing the collective voice of community based AIDS service organizations and our participating PHAs, our mandate is to strengthen and support the members by providing education, skills and capacity building, semi-annual conferences and facilitating community-based research.

We also work on social justice issues that affect the lives of people who have HIV/AIDS. We advocate on their behalf for sustainable government funding, access to state-of- the- art treatment and support for all PHA's and appropriate public policy and legislation in response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Much of this Health and Social Policy development work is relevant to and benefits all disease and disability groups and the public at large.
