Kunst Director Marlene Arribaa Director of Operations (So Aabla espanw) CURE AIDS NOW (C.A.N.) is a not -for -profit organization dedicated to provide information and services regarding the AIDS crisis at the local, national and international levels. Our Center is located at 2240 South Dixie Highway, Miami, Florida. We specifically serve geographic areas such as Coconut Grove, the Southwest area including -Little Havana, the Brickell area, Key Biscayne and Coral Gables. Thousands of commuters drive to and from work using -South Dixie Highway where our Center is located. We are also easily accessible from the Metrorail. Our programs in Dade County reach out to the heterosexual, the bisexual and the homosuxual communities. The cultural and ethnic plurarity of Dade County is unique in the country. We are capable of serving the White, the Black, the Hispanic and the Haitian populations within a rather small geographic = are&. We are currently planning, coordinating and implementing programs such as an International Clearinghouse on information about AIDS, "Meals on Wheels" for AIDS patients, a Buddy _ System training program, a nursing facility for adults and 1 children with AIDS, a confidential and annonymous testing center, education and training programs for police, firemen and prision personnel and support groups for people with AIDS, ARC or HIV positive including their friends and families. Our "Meal on Wheels" program is probably the most compre- hensive, compassionate and effective effort in providing direct services to AIDS patients. We have delivered over 6000 meals in the past six months. This compassionate effort has certainly made a critical and significant difference in their lives. We would like to continue and to expand these worthwhile and deserving services. We are in need of funds to continue to expand each one of these programs as well as tQ plan and implement new ones as needs in our community arise. Our staff of volunteers is essential in providing services, but it is not sufficient to a 2240South Dixie Highway • Coconut Grove, Florida33133 • (305).858•TEST a2 Sr7-1131 fi t CUPS Aolevoso NOW DIRECTORS: Robert P.
