Women's Programs



ACT is here for women who are living with HIV, at risk for HIV infection, or who know someone living with HIV.

Living with HIV?

If you are a woman living with HIV, ACT provides information and support services to help you live better with HIV.

We offer specific programs just for women living with HIV - such as our annual Women's Retreat, our monthly social support/food program called The Kitchen (for HIV-positive Black, African and Caribbean women), and a monthly social support event called Women's Coffee night open to all women with HIV.
Concerned about your risk for HIV?

If you are a woman who does not have HIV or you've never been tested for HIV, ACT is here for you, too. We offer information and services to help you avoid infection with HIV, and you can drop by our offices to access free condoms and lubricant.
Are you a Service Provider?

We provide education, information and training to agencies in Toronto who work with women. In that way, these women serving organizations can better integrate HIV education and support into their work. To find out more about our service-provider training program, visit our website called SHE - Shared Health Exchange.
