HIV-911 welcomes you to our new website.

HIV-911 is a national referral network of HIV/AIDS and social service related service providers, covering the whole of South Africa. HIV-911 hosts almost 13 000 organisations involved in HIV/AIDS-related work.

HIV-911 aims to enable everyone all over the country to find out where to get the help they need when face with an HIV/AIDS-related crisis or question.

HIV-911 is a project borne of the Centre for HIV/AIDS Networking (HIVAN), based at the University of KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN).
