AIDS Athens was founded by a group of Athens residents who attended a forum on AIDS at the University of Georgia in February 1987.
members of AIDS Athens approved changes in the structure of the organization and renamed it the AIDS Coalition of Northeast Georgia, as the organization grew to serve clients living in 10 Northeast Georgia counties.
the AIDS Coalition was renamed AIDS Athens to emphasize the reaffirmation of its mission to serve all local people infected or affected by HIV/AIDS.
the agency was renamed Live Forward to focus on the journey of our clients towards healthy outcomes, housing stability and independence.
