History and missionAIDS United was born out of a merger between two Washington, DC based organizations: the National Aids Fund (NAF), a strategic grantmaking foundation and public charity, and AIDS Action, an advocacy organization for sound policy creation and the dissemination of education regarding the AIDS epidemic. NAF was founded in 1987, with the mission to support community-driven responses to the HIV epidemic around the country that would reach the nation’s most disproportionately affected populations, including gay and bisexual men, communities of color, women, people living in the deep South and people living with HIV/AIDS.[1] AIDS Action was developed out of a 1984[1] coalition among AIDS service organizations across the United States, in response to the federal government’s seeming indifference at that time to the needs of communities affected by HIV. Their mission was to cultivate and create policies and programs in response to the HIV epidemic, distribute information, and advocate on behalf of all those living with and affected by HIV.[2] The two organizations merged in 2010 to form AIDS United, under the direction of Mark Ishaug, then president and CEO of the AIDS Foundation of Chicago.[3] The mission of AIDS United is to end the AIDS epidemic in the United States through strategic grantmaking, capacity building, policy/advocacy, technical assistance, and formative research.[1] AdministrationJesse Milan Jr..PD is the President and Chief Executive Officer of AIDS United.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 {{Cite web|url = https://www.aidsunited.org/About.aspx|title = AIDS United: About|date = 2014|accessdate = June 24, 2014|website = AIDS United|publisher = AIDS United|last = |first = }} 2. ^{{Cite web|url = http://library.gwu.edu/ead/ms2212.xml|title = Preliminary Guide to the AIDS Action Foundation records|date = 2011|accessdate = June 24, 2014|website = The George Washington University Special Collections Finding Aids|publisher = Special Collections Research Center, The George Washington University|last = |first = }} 3. ^{{Cite web|url = http://www.philanthropynewsdigest.org/news/national-aids-fund-and-aids-action-merge|title = National AIDS Fund and AIDS Action Merge|date = November 27, 2010|accessdate = June 24, 2014|website = Philanthropy News Digest|publisher = Philanthropy News Digest|last = |first = }} External links
