LAP(Life Aids Project) began with people thinking about the "lives" that we, as PHA(People With HIV/AIDS) or HIV-negatives, have lived through together.
LAP is an NGO group that aims to construct mutually supportive relationships and care . We think these relationships and care should naturally promote self-confidence and vigor, and the understanding that we need each other. We do not think of this as some sort of "almsgiving", or an order that must be excuted.
The word "life" refers to our whole lives, and our daily lives. HIV poses the serious question about how we should live our lives. We think one answer to that question is to make our lives more enriched. And we also think we can find that answer in each experience that we get in our mutual supportive relationships and care.
