Become a CAS Member

Collective Voice
Join over 120 organizations working in HIV/AIDS in Canada. The Canadian AIDS Society (CAS) and its member organizations are dedicated to increasing the response to HIV/AIDS across all sectors of society, and to enriching the lives of people and communities living with HIV/AIDS. Together we can build broad support for action on HIV/AIDS on a national level and help strengthen the voice of people living with HIV/AIDS in Canada and internationally. Together, we are stronger.

Members participate and partner with the Canadian AIDS Society in national capacity-building, fundraising and awareness events. Some of the key activities in which you can participate are:

• People living with HIV/AIDS Forum
