Gilbert Centre

Founded by Ed Gilbert, the Gilbert Centre has been in operation since 1995, serving communities across Simcoe County and Muskoka. Initially developed as a response to HIV/AIDS, the organization has grown to include comprehensive health, harm reduction, and support services for people living with, affected by, and at risk of HIV and Hepatitis C, as well as 2S-LGBTQ+ individuals and communities. Today, the Gilbert Centre operates as a registered charity and incorporated not-for-profit organization. Its work focuses on health equity and human rights, including harm reduction outreach, HIV and Hepatitis C testing and support, and 2S-LGBTQ+ programming across Simcoe and Muskoka. Additional information is available at www.gilbertcentre.ca . The Gilbert Centre is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors and is committed to accountability, transparency, equity, and responsible stewardship of public and donor funds. 2.
