Vision
Every person should have access to health and wellness programs that best fit their unique individual needs. LIVE CONSORTIUM, Houston's next generation in health and wellness social education and community activism, is a nonprofit initiative to facilitate individuals in need of health and wellness services in finding those programs and services. LIVE CONSORTIUM correlates individual health and wellness needs and the programs and services currently offered by Houston's many community service and government organizations that best suit the health and wellness needs of the individual. If, however, the individual's health and wellness needs are not met by any Houston organization, LIVE CONSORTIUM will proactively work to meet the needs of those individuals caught in that unfortunate scenario.
Every individual has the right to live in a world free of stigma, no matter what the stigma. The University Anti-Stigma CampaignSM is designed to confront stigmas that exist in our communities today in order to create a stigma-free world tomorrow. By confronting stigma, all people will have the opportunity to receive the emotional, social, and medical support they need to live healthy and full lives.
Today, we have an historic opportunity to cast HIV in a healthy light and communicate a dynamic message: Live Better, Be the CURE! Due to medical advancements, particularly in the last 5 years, HIV no longer means certain death, but instead, individuals are expected to live healthy and full lives. LIVE CONSORTIUM is a cutting-edge nonprofit organization producing powerful and effective new HIV education and social programs, services, and marketing tools to create a world that is compassionate and provides support for all people, regardless of status. In so doing, greater numbers of individuals diagnosed with HIV will seek treatment before they are clinically diagnosed with AIDS, and there will be a substantial increase in effective, reasoned, and proactive prevention of HIV transmission by the community at large.
We must seize the opportunity of our era, to cast a new image, inclusive of HIV status, through specifically designed programs and services in order to provide accurate HIV education in a non-threatening, encouraging, and effective manner to all people, regardless of status. Through a new logo, color, and message of hope, health, and vitality, LIVE CONSORTIUM will successfully reach those whom the red ribbon campaign cannot. Although the red ribbon campaign has proven to be, and still is, an essential element in the historic battle against HIV/AIDS, the epic symbol causes many to ignore its message out of fear of the past and complacency today.
