HIV Heroes is a program of POZabilities

POZabilities is a volunteer effort to reduce isolation, depression and stigma among individuals in San Diego who are infected and affected by HIV through education, outreach, and networking.

We envision an HIV+ community where social support is strong, where isolation, HIV prejudice and discrimination are eliminated, and where HIV+ individuals live healthy and fulfilling lives.

We aspire to be forward thinking, collaborative, and willing to engage with the community we serve. We aspire to be instrumental in efforts to build a community that has the information, support, and mentorship to lead healthy and fulfilled lives.

We are a local organization that directs its efforts to those living in the City and County of San Diego, specifically to:

• Provide current information, referrals, and forums on relevant issues in particular, information dealing with health promotion and significant life issues to empower those infected and affected by HIV/AIDS.

• To promote a positive image of people living with HIV/AIDS, with the aim of eliminating prejudice, isolation, stigmatization, and discrimination.

• To maximize our current efforts, we seek to collaborate with other non-profit organizations that qualify under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.

• To provide activities and events for HIV+ individuals in a safe alcohol and drug-free environment for the purpose of relieving isolation and depression.

We are a 501 © (3) Nonprofit Charitable organization. Our Federal EIN is 47-3562551. All donations are appreciated and can be made at pozabilities.org/donate/.
