Ways to be an Ally

Throwing an event? Allies' community health team can set up an table to share important information about sexual health. We can also bring our mobile testing van to offer HIV, hepatitis C and syphilis testing. To learn more or to request Allies' participation in your next event, contact Anitra Branch, our community health manager, at 412-345-7456 or email abranch@alliespgh.org.
Offer legal services to Allies' clients
One of the first services offered by the Pittsburgh AIDS Task Force, now Allies, was the Pro-Bono Legal Aid Network, which provided legal counsel to people with HIV who were facing discrimination or wanting to make end-of-life plans. Today, Allies continues to link clients to legal assistance from generous professionals in the Pittsburgh community. If you are interested in participating in our legal aid program, please contact Megan Highland, director of client services, at mhighland@alliespgh.org.
