AWARDS
ACAS has created two special awards to honor the contributions of individuals who espouse the core values and visions of ACAS. The Patrick Truong PHA Leadership Award honors a person living with HIV of East & Southeast Asian cultural heritage who has made significant contributions in the areas of HIV/AIDS, human rights and/or related social justice issues in Toronto, Canada or internationally. It was named after ACAS late support staff, AIDS and community activist. The Awardee is Paul Fernandez (posthumous).
