Who: STOP AIDS was founded in 1983 in response to the first AIDS- related death in the Cincinnati area. As the number of HIV-challenged individuals grew, so did our services; the agency quickly grew from a grassroots, volunteer organization into a professional AIDS Service Organization that today employs over 25 full-time staff, and serves around 1,000 clients per year.
The STOP AIDS offices at 220 Findlay Street in Over-the-Rhine are home to programs providing client services, prevention education, and HIV/AIDS testing. It is the Vision & Mission of STOP AIDS to be the leader in the fight against AIDS until there's a cure…changing lives one person at a time.
