Welcome to the Second Life HIV/AIDS Support Wiki.

URGENT NEWS
The Second life HIV/AIDS Network HQ and AIDS Memorial Garden are now closed. I have also had to cancel my email account. Those people who have been harrassing me (after finding out my RL identity too) are more than welcome to feel pleased with themselves. I'm sorry to all those people who have been adversley affected - truly but I am afraid that I can't keep this up with the sorts of harrassment I've faced.

It was good while it lasted and I hope that I have made some impact on the way HIV/AIDS is viewed in SL, I know the adverse affects but I hope the positives have outweighed them.

Love, peace and hope to you all

Ethan LeSabre

There are a number of organisations and groups in Second Life that offer support and information to people living with HIV/AIDS. The aim of this Wiki is to allow those groups a presence on the web and to collate all of the various resources in one central portal. You can view the Mission Statement of the SL HIV/AIDS Support Network here.

We are currently looking for details of the various groups, services and spaces available in Second Life that cover the subject.
If you would like to contribute we ask that you look at the Template pages before you create your own (You'll find a link to the template on the relevant index page). For more help with editing please visit the Guide for Users.

We are currently looking for pages that cover:

• SL Groups
• SL Parcels/Sims
• Events
  
• Useful Websites
• Useful RL Organisations (by country and region)

Along with anything else that you feel might be useful.

!!! Update !!!
An Events page has now been set up for the Network. This is a place to leave a synopsis of any upcoming events the individual groups may have. There is the space for a more detailed description that can be found either by going to the individual organisation's page or by clicking on the link on the events page. When the Network is made aware of the details of any upcoming events these pages will be updated.

Thank you for your help and support
