What We Do

The Black Treatment Advocates Network Los Angeles (BTAN LA) is a collaboration of community advocates and organizations working together to connect members of the Black community to HIV education, prevention and treatment services with the ultimate goal of fighting stigma, preventing new infections, and achieving viral suppression in the Black community.

 

BTAN LA helps to accomplish these goals through:

Unique HIV testing strategies and incentives

Peer mentor and buddy programs to link people and help them stay in care

Treatment information and scientific updates

Building communities through social activities

The Drive Out AIDS testing campaign

Support for Treatment-as-Prevention

Linkage to PrEP and PEP

Monthly meetings for networking and strategy development

Educational forums

 

We can end the AIDS epidemic in our communities but we can't do it without you.

 

Meetings

BTAN LA meets the third Tuesday of every month, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at 1968 W. Adams Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90018. Dinner provided. All are welcome to attend.
