VANOC Vans to Fight AIDS? Vancouver Street Nurses Petition for an Olympic Legacy

The street nurses featured in the film Bevel Up: Drugs, Users and Outreach Nursing are calling on the Vancouver Organizing Committee for the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Games to dedicate former Olympic cars to fight AIDS. So many agencies in the Downtown Eastside could use outreach vans for their work. Whether delivering a meal to a man with AIDS in a SRO in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside, or providing a means to get an HIV positive woman to a doctor’s appointment or for an agency to provide services for sex workers – no Buick need be wasted!
