Core Values
The Alliance for South Asian AIDS Prevention (ASAAP) is committed to upholding the highest level of service quality and public trust for people who are infected and affected by HIV/AIDS.
Our Values:
We work within an anti-oppression, social justice and equity framework that reflects in all organizational aspects and which promotes diversity and fosters collaboration and collective action.
We acknowledge the presence and impact of racism, sexism, heterosexism, homophobia, ageism, classism and other forms of oppression on our lives as South Asians living with or affected by HIV/AIDS, and actively strive to dismantle them.
We are a sex-positive and queer-positive agency that is reflected in our services, decision-making and outreach strategies.
We foster an environment that respects all members regardless of sexual orientation, race, HIV status, gender, culture, ethnicity, ability status, religion, age, and language. We welcome and respect a diversity of views and opinions.
We collaborate with, strategic, effective partnerships with organizations sharing similar visions and goals, especially HIV/AIDS organizations and South Asian Communities.
We are transparent and accountable in all our work, to the membership and the larger South Asian, as well as HIV/AIDS Community.
