PWA/LTI is the People Living with HIV/AIDS
Leadership Training Institute.
The Leadership Training Institute
was created by and for PWHA.
This program was designed to energize the PWHA Community. It helps in
building the skills and knowledge needed to lead in the community at
large—to continue making inroads into all aspects of community development
and growth.
The
LTI Core Training offers Individuals living with HIV/AIDS...
-
a
safe space in which to explore individual leadership strengths and
goals.
-
a
better understanding of leadership opportunities in the AIDS community.
-
experience in problem solving approaches around real community issues.
-
a
strengthened ability to have a voice in the processes that determine
what AIDS services are appropriate and needed.
-
an
increased sense of personal empowerment.
We know how to make a difference. By working
together we can get things done-there is strength in numbers. PWA/LTI helps
you discover the skills and the confidence to lead. You are our communities'
greatest asset, but if you are not involved, that resource goes untapped.
You owe it to yourself to become involved and have a say in what happens
with public policy at every level. As people living with HIV/AIDS we must
learn from the past. Your involvement is the only way to ensure a better
future.
PWA
LTI, a division of
Cicatelli Associates
Inc. (CAI),
was developed through a partnership between the New York City Department of
Health and the New York State Department of Health/AIDS Institute and those
living with HIV/AIDS. This training instills the motivation for those living
with HIV to become effectively involved in community planning as HIV policy
advocates. Our community needs more leaders advocating for positive change;
advocating for us all. Please become involved -
you make the difference.
