The HIV community is losing a respected and vital voice. NAM aidsmap, which has provided HIV journalism and information for 37 years, announced its proposed closure this month.

Billed as an HIV information charity, aidsmap has provided an array of treatment updates, news headlines, profiles, pamphlets, opinion pieces, booklets, guidelines, videos and more. Its “National AIDS Manual” was first published in 1987.

Although based in the United Kingdom, the charity, officially known as NAM Publication, posted content via its website, aidsmap.com, and reached a global audience. The news was announced on the site in a post titled “Thank You and Farewell” (you can read it below). It was also posted on social media, where fellow journalists, advocates and members of the HIV community expressed their respect and admiration for the organization and its team.

wow. that's some sad news
leatherman (aka Michael)

We were standing all alone
You were leaning in to speak to me
Acting like a mover shaker
Dancing to Madonna then you kissed me
And I think about it all the time
