Elizabeth Taylor established The Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation (ETAF) in 1991 to raise funds and awareness to fight the spread of HIV/AIDS, and to provide assistance for those living with the virus. With its focus on direct care and prevention education, ETAF funds AIDS organizations throughout the world, providing support services to populations most in need. The Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation (1) supports organizations delivering direct care and services to people living with HIV/AIDS, and (2) supports organizations that provide education to the public regarding the AIDS virus and the prevention of AIDS. ETAF supports existing organizations and entities that have exhibited integrity in managing their operations along with the knowledge and ability to expediently provide services or achieve other designated goals.

On the annual HIV Is Not A Crime Awareness Day, we recruited new, beloved ETAF champion Laverne Cox to walk us through the evolution of HIV/AIDS over the decades – and explain the harmful, discriminatory laws that our country put in place in its wake.

We can’t thank Laverne enough for helping us to tell the story of HIV criminalization and raise awareness for the injustices that people living with HIV face to this day.

To support our mission and join the fight to decriminalize HIV, go to etaf.org/hivisnotacrime.
