As you may know, our community is disproportionately impacted by HIV / AIDS. African Americans, 13% of the population, accounted for 45% of new HIV infections and 48% of those living with HIV. Recognizing the severity of this epidemic, we have pledged to focus our efforts this year to organizations that are making a difference in this area.
ANIZ, INC. is a non-profit organization. Our mission is to provide comprehensive health and awareness education and prevention services for disadvantaged multicultural children, youth, young adults, families and grandparents, and to provide skills training to organizations that implement disease prevention and health promotion programs.
ANIZ, INC. was formed in 1996 as a 501 (c) (3), non-profit human services organization to empower children and adults through professional support and therapeutic intervention.
By working in collaboration with agencies and other non-profit organizations serving the Multicultural community, we are able to reach those who have historically been overlooked and underserved.
A primary goal of Aniz is to be a resource to Multicultural Americans and other under-served populations and to those organizations dedicated to meeting their needs. As African-American mental health professionals we
know the needs, we understand the barriers, and we know how to affect change within our community.
We also know that HIV/AIDS and substance abuse affects us all. We are proud of our culturally competent staff and culturally relevant services.
