AIDS Run & Walk Chicago brings together Chicago’s HIV community and supporters each year to celebrate, honor and remember how far we have come in the HIV epidemic. Open Door Health Center of Illinois is one of the many community-based organizations that fundraises with AIDS Run & Walk Chicago year after year to help them continue providing services and support for people living with HIV and related chronic conditions. Earlier this year, Perry Maier, executive director of Open Door, sat down with us to speak about the story of the organization and how funds from AIDS Run & Walk Chicago not only allow them to provide traditional HIV-related care, but also offer new and innovative services for the clients they serve.
