Accessibility Coordinator

Who Are We?

LetsStopAIDS, Canada’s largest youth-led HIV charity, has been accelerating the global HIV response since 2004. With over 15,000 volunteers and 10 global projects, the organization has impacted more than 300,000 youth worldwide.

About the Summit

NoTimeToWait is a two-day national summit where youth lead the conversation on the questions others won’t ask—demanding the right to learn, be heard, and take control of our health. Designed by youth, for youth, the Summit calls on us to take collective action because if we don’t fight for our future, no one else will.

We are looking for volunteers for this year’s Summit, taking place Friday, November 6 and Saturday, November 7, 2026, at the Polish Combatants’ Hall (SPK), 206 Beverley St, Toronto, ON M5T 1Z3.

Overview
