Hmm, I'm also really impressed by grassroots US AIDS organizations, which are working for better prevention policies... organizations like CHAMP and ACT UP/Philadelphia, which do domestic advocacy around access to condoms in public high schools and prisons, and harm reduction organizations, especially those operating in conservative political environments (viva Atlanta Harm Reduction Center, viva!).
Also, organizations working on an international level in opposition to the US policies ..ion, condoms and harm reduction programs (like CHANGE and OSI).
