MISSION
HIV has not gone away - infection rates particularly among youth are still high.
“People aged 13 to 34 accounted for 60% of the estimated 31,800 new HIV infections in the US in 2022.
An estimated 1.2 million people were living with HIV and 87% of them knew their HIV status.
People with HIV are living longer, healthier lives because of effective treatment. Over half of people with HIV were 50 and older. Additionally, more than half of all people with HIV are virally suppressed.”
The mission of the NorCal AIDS Cycle is to support the organizations throughout Northern California, with an emphasis on the Greater Sacramento Valley, that are working to end the HIV/AIDS pandemic and care for those living with and affected by HIV/AIDS in our region.
The goals of the NCAC are to:
Raise funds to support HIV/AIDS-related services within the inland Northern California region;
Raise awareness about the benefitting organizations and their services within the area;
Increase awareness of the needs throughout the community by increasing participation in the NCAC;
Encourage a positive environment for the dignity, quality of life, and acceptance of people affected by and infected with HIV/AIDS
“In the last twenty years the NorCal AIDS Cycle has raised over three million dollars for HIV/AIDS related non-profit agencies in the Sacramento and Northern California Region.”
