ACT launched HIVnow in June of 2015 as an opportunity to engage gay, bi, and queer men in meaningful discussions about the changing reality of HIV in Toronto. The original website (HIVnow.ca) included up to date information about: PrEP, undetectable viral load, HIV testing guidelines, and criminalization of HIV non-disclosure.

In 2023, ACT’s outreach team conducted a complete overhaul of HIVnow to update the website with new information. We will continue to monitor emerging trends and update the website accordingly. It is our goal that HIVnow is a comprehensive resource for information about PrEP and U=U.

ACT would like to say thank you to the MAC AIDS Foundation and all our community partners who helped develop this resource:
