Disclosing one's HIV-positive status is like coming out all over again. Many of my friends experienced embarrassment, misunderstanding, stigma and cruelty, even from their closest friends and family members.
A crucial part of achieving an AIDS free generation is recruiting a new contingent of HIV and AIDS activists to carry on the work that my uncle began. That is why I joined GMHC's Millennial Committee which is developing new, young donors.
Isolation. Stigma. Shame. Words I would have not connected to cooking until I came to work at GMHC 10 years ago. Our clients deserve the best and I purchase the best quality of food I can get.
On Saturday, Dec. 8, we bore witness to our "angels in America" -- our continuum of GMHC families. First stop: the Harlem Children's Zone, the location of the annual holiday party for families that GMHC works with who are living with or affected by HIV/AIDS.
For the rest of the holiday season, in lieu of a traditional gift guide, we'll be featuring a different LGBT organization for our "30 Days Of LGBT Hol...
Some 46 artists living with HIV/AIDS are behind the 169 vibrant pieces, all selected by GMHC, one of one of the world's best-known AIDS-fighting charities and community-based organizations.

On Saturday, January 21, celebrity photographer, Mike Ruiz donated his time to take photos for Gay Menās Health Crisis's (GMHC) HIV testing and prev...
As we at Gay Men's Health Crisis make our new house a home, we begin a new conversation about HIV/AIDS -- an ongoing conversation that looks to current and upcoming needs.
The ultimate decisions regarding patients' drug regimens should rest with the prescriber, not the State Health Commissioner, who has absolutely no familiarity with a patient's health status.
Gay Men's Health Crisis is celebrating thirty years of serving those in NYC who are living with HIV/AIDS; providing critical services and support to tens of thousands of New Yorkers over the decades.
A massive collection of material has been donated to the New York Public Library by the Gay Men's Health Crisis, the first organization to provide HIV/AIDS prevention, care and advocacy.
After a two-year-plus search for a new home -- during which it was turned down by numerous property owners -- the Gay Men's Health Crisis will be movi...
Photographing folks at such events, one never fails to search out the alert presence of Bill Cunningham. His being there gives an event a certain gravitas which only he can confer.
