Organizational Programming

ACNS offers programs and services to organizations and communities in Nova Scotia who express an interest in increasing their knowledge and skills around HIV/AIDS. Incorporating policy, practices and supports for staff, clients, and consumers alike can increase the capacity of any organization or community and reduce the anxiety/fear that people may experience. Through education, prevention and capacity building initiatives, ACNS fosters networking and partnerships throughout the province to establish a seamless integrated approach to services.

  • AIDS 101 for organizations;
  • Prevention workshops;

  • Gay Men’s Health Workshop;
  • Marginalized Population Support for organizations and communities;
