The HIV Council and Care Planning Council promote health in the community through prevention, planning, services, and advocacy. It’s our mission to reduce HIV infection while providing services that ensure the highest quality of life for all persons affected by HIV, including persons who are typically under-served or not served at all.

Your Voice Can Make a Difference

We are looking for a diverse group of dedicated people to be part of the decision-making process for HIV/AIDS related services in eleven Missouri counties (Clinton, Platte, Clay, Ray, Jackson, LaFayette, Cass, Johnson, Bates, Henry, Benton) and in four Kansas counties (Miami, Leavenworth, Wyandotte, Johnson.)

Are you, or someone you know, living with HIV/AIDS?
Do you want to improve services and help prevent the spread of HIV?
Are you a service provider, community leader, or public health official?
Can you spare 3-5 hours a month to make a real difference?

If you answered yes to any of the questions above, please consider becoming a member of the HIV Prevention and Care Planning Council.

Monthly meetings are held on the 3rd Tuesday from 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM.
The public is welcome to attend, so please join us!

The HIV Prevention and Care Planning Council is part of the Kansas City Transitional Grant Area Ryan White Federal Program. The program was created in 1990 to improve the quality and availability of medical care and support services for low income, uninsured, and under-insured individuals and families affected by HIV disease.

It is named in honor of Ryan White, an Indiana teenager who courageously struggled with HIV/AIDS while facing discrimination in accessing the education and medical systems.
