HIV Health Services Peoples Caucus

The People's Caucus

The People's Caucus of San Antonio is a peer group whose mission is to unify the HIV+ community by gathering information and input from persons living with HIV/AIDS and using this information to bring change and excellence to San Antonio and South Texas. Thus empowering all HIV/AIDS challenged individuals in our community to live the highest quality of life possible without discrimination in receiving care or services.

Our role is to be the voice of all people living with HIV/AIDS. We want to know if there are things going on in the community that need to be addressed; to include service delivery and quality of the service from any organization.

We operate under the strictest of confidence. All members are required to fill out a confidentiality statement. We do not release information we gain or discuss in our meetings other than issues or grievances that the leadership may be asked to address. The People's Caucus invites you to get involved and help us with our mission.
