The Minority Alliance for Advocating Community Awareness and Action, Inc. (MAACA), formerly known as the Minority AIDS Action Committee (MAAC) was established in October, 1999 under Shisa, Inc. on behalf of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) capacity-building grant CDC PA 00003 Priority 3: Strengthening Community Capacity for HIV Prevention. By September, 2003 MAACA obtained its 501(c)(3) status. Our Mission is to empower the community through the linkage of services, the creation of culturally sensitive programs and mobilization strategies.
MAACA offices are located 1375 Cross Creek Cir, Tallahassee, FL 32301 where we provide HIV testing and counseling, our H.I.R.E. Inmate Job Placement Program and the Abstinence Education Program.
