ACON

ACON is NSW’s leading LGBTQ health organisation, providing community health, inclusion and HIV responses for people of diverse sexualities and genders.

Established in 1985, their early years were defined by community coming together to respond to the HIV/ AIDS epidemic in NSW, and they remain committed to ending HIV for everyone in their communities. They do this by delivering campaigns and programs to eliminate new HIV transmissions. Supporting people living with HIV to live healthy and connected lives remains core to ACON's work.

Vision and mission

ACON creates opportunities for people in their communities to live their healthiest lives.

ACON are proud to work with a diverse range of LGBTQ people to ensure their voices and health needs are represented.

How ACON can help

ACON help LGBTQ communities take control of their health so they can look after themselves as well as their partners, family and friends. They offer a range of services including sexual health, mental health, alcohol and other drugs, safety and inclusion, domestic and family violence and ageing.
