Aids Saint John getting a financial boost to the tune of more than 220 thousand dollars from the federal government.
Dr. Leslie Jeffrey chairs the board at Aids Saint John and says while there has been progress on the medical front, the same can't be said socially with sufferers facing discrimination and stigmatisation.
Dr. Jeffrey says they do alot of one on one work to get people reconnected with the social supports they need because of being ostracised and that's what alot of this new money will be used for.
