Our Mission

The mission of the organization is to raise awareness and eliminate the stigma and discrimination associated with HIV and AIDS through education and community participation to affect positive lifestyle and behavioral changes. Most importantly, we are committed to empowering everyone living with HIV within the Turks & Caicos, mazimising their health and wellbeing by working to ensure the best possible treatment and support services. This commitment will continue throughout the years.

 
 

Our Impact

The TCAAF impacts the lives of the youths in Providenciales through the Edward C. Gartland Youth Centre where we empower teenagers with the information, skills and confidence they need to cope with the challenges of daily life.  The TCAAF dedicates its time to fundraising efforts to implement informative and fun programs that engage young people and dispel myths about HIV/AIDS.

We also thrive to combat the spread of HIV/AIDS in the Turks and Caicos Islands and its rippling, negative affects on the community through increased education and awareness. 

New efforts are made every year to strengthen our relationship with the National HIV Prevention Unit and directly impact the lives of the people living with HIV/AIDS in the TCI. In our belief, providing necessary health and medical assistance, will affect positive lifestyle and behavioural changes.

Our Programs

TCAAF allows for service providers and funders to come together to develop systems that meet the needs of those living with HIV/AIDS and to maximize the use of scarce resources. By assisting government HIV Unit with counseling, testing and health monitoring, TCAAF helps in developing medical monitoring expertise and promotes high-quality delivery of programs to our youths.

I believe AIDS is the most important issue we face, because how we treat the poor is a reflection of who we are as a people.
