The HIV/AIDS Impact Project will honor Yolanda French Lollis, Armen Merjian, William McColl, Jesse Milan, and Scott Schoettes for their sustained commitment and excellence in advocacy during the 2022 HIV/AIDS Law & Practice Conference in New Orleans, LA.
Alexander Forger's leadership in the early, most harrowing days of the AIDS epidemic in the United States was indispensable to establishing legal services for people with HIV or AIDS in New York, meeting their crucial needs for protection from discrimination and for planning responsibly for their then-inevitable demise. Forger awardees share a record of commitment and effectiveness in the fight against HIV and AIDS that reflects the spirit of Alexander D. Forger's advocacy.
Past recipients of the Alexander D. Forger Award for Sustained Excellence in HIV Legal Services and Advocacy are distinguished organizations and individuals that have provided or enabled legal services for people with HIV over a sustained period.
