Our Mission:

To improve access to comprehensive care and treatment for low-income individuals living with HIV/AIDS.  TAEP is the only national organization whose mission is focused exclusively on maximizing access to increasingly effective HIV medications.


Our Four Primary Goals:

Increased Testing

Promoting HIV testing initiatives to reach the approximately 250,000+ undiagnosed people living with HIV in the US and to get them into care.

Reduction/Elimination of Late Diagnosis

Addressing widespread late diagnosis, reversing the current trend of 40% of people living with HIV being diagnosed approximately nine years after date of infection and within one year of an AIDS diagnosis.

Promotion of Early Access to Care

Ensuring that the 45% of individuals aged 15-49 who are eligible but not receiving HIV drugs have access to these life-saving medications and expanding private/public health insurance programs for the 290,000+ individuals living with HIV who are currently insured.

Reduction of Stigma

Reducing fear and stigma associated with HIV that have strong negative effects on testing, care, and disclosure, particularly among those most at risk for these diseases.
