Listen "Accept, Accepting and Helping Marginalized Communities in Reno"
Episode Synopsis
The Access for Community and Cultural Education Programs & Trainings (ACCEPT) is a non-profit organization in Northern Nevada specializing in health education and services for clients with HIV, and now also helping other marginalized communities.
Founded after the tragic death of two men due to AIDS, the group has been serving the Northern Nevada area for nearly thirty years.
“In the early nineties, there were two young men that died from HIV and AIDS that were going to our church,” Executive Director of ACCEPT Gwen Taylor explained. “No one wanted to tell my husband that they died. Those two guys died. Young men died of AIDS without their pastor going to visit them. My husband just became very aggravated with the ignorance.”
Find out more about this organization in this podcast episode with Jesse Stone.
