Geschichte
In response to the growing HIV/AIDS crisis in Canada, Kingston AIDS Project (KAP) was founded in 1988 by a group of community-minded advocates to provide education to the community about HIV/AIDS as well as support to the growing number of people living with HIV in the Kingston area. To reflect the growing scope of KAP's services outside of the City to the counties of Hastings & Prince Edward (HPE), Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox & Addington (KFL&A), as well as the counties of Leeds Grenville and Lanark (LGL) KAP became HIV/AIDS Regional Services (HARS) in 1992. They provide education and support to individuals and organizations in Kingston and the surrounding region including comprehensive services with regard to education, prevention, and support for people living with, at risk of, or affected by HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted bloodborne infections (STBBIs). HARS also has an advocacy role calling for broader social change to reduce stigma and discrimination. in 2022 HARS is renamed Trellis HIV & Community care.
