NAPWA

Founded from a public meeting of the Melbourne gay community in 1983, the Victorian AIDS Council/Gay Men’s Health Centre (VAC/GMHC) has grown to a community health service using the multi-disciplinary skills of approximately 300 volunteers and 45 paid staff, and an annual budget of $3.2 million. Thousands of individual members of the community and hundreds of companies and organisations also contribute to the success of our work.

The VAC/GMHC aims to improve the health and social and emotional well-being of the Victorian HIV positive and Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender communities. In particular, we are invested in bringing the AIDS epidemic to an end.
