The Campaign to End AIDS C2EA

1

The Campaign to End AIDS (C2EA) is an exciting,
diverse new coalition made up of people living
with HIV/AIDS, their loved ones and their
advocates. Together, we demand a far more urgent
and effective response by our government to end
the AIDS pandemic.
2
WE HAVE THE TOOLS TO END AIDS. LETS DEMAND
THAT OUR LEADERS USE THEM. Fully fund
high-quality treatment and support services for
all people living with HIV everywhere in the
world. Ramp up HIV prevention at home and
abroad, guided by science rather than ideology.
Increase research to find a cure, more
effective treatments and better prevention tools.
Fight AIDS stigma and protect the civil rights
of all people with HIV and AIDS everywhere.
