Board Member
National Minority AIDS Council
The National Minority AIDS Council (NMAC) is a well-respected national
organization dedicated to addressing the challenges of HIV/AIDS within
communities of color. Leonardo Ortega serves on the board of NMAC and
attended the United States Conference on AIDS as a support member.
“It’s my role to support the agenda and talk about the issues related to
HIV/AIDS,” he says. His passion for the cause is pure, and his compassion
spreads far beyond the scope of the organization. “It is important for people
to remember that, no matter your background, HIV/AIDS affects us all,”
explains Mr. Ortega. “We can all learn something from each other at this
conference; whether it be [about] treatment or intervention.”
