About this organization

ASAAP was born out of community activism when in 1989, a South Asian couple died unable to access AIDS services in their own language and cultural context. Khush, a group of South Asian queer activists came together and with support from ACT (AIDS Committee of Toronto) formed the South Asian AIDS Coalition.

Initially run by volunteers working out of a makeshift workspace in a garage, to being housed at ACT, the South Asian AIDS Coalition became the Alliance for South Asian AIDS Prevention in 1995 after being incorporated as an independent AIDS Service Organization.

Today, the need for multi-lingual HIV/AIDS related services is just as important as it was over 25 years ago.

ASAAP`s work is focused on areas that many South Asians find uncomfortable facing, such as sexuality, sexual health and homophobia. The shame and guilt associated with conversations on sexual health impede access to information and fuel our work even today.
