The Black AIDS Institute (The Institute) is the only national HIV/AIDS think tank in the United States focused exclusively on Black people. The institute's mission is to end the HIV/AIDS pandemic in Black communities by engaging and mobilizing traditional Black leaders, institutions-clergy, media, academics, civic, social, celebrities, business, elected officials-and individuals in efforts to confront HIV/AIDS. The institute offers training and capacity building, disseminates information, analyzes and offers critics on private and public sector HIV policies, and provides advocacy and mobilization from a uniquely and unapologetically Black point of view.
Phill Wilson, President and CEO of the Black AIDS Institute, is available for interviews and press queries. PhillWilson@blackaids.org or (323) 829-4195.
