Karnataka State Aids Prevention Society Government Of Karnataka

Our office is tucked away on CB Lane in the Ranasinghpet area of Bangalore. It’s an old part of the city, so things are usually a bit crowded and noisy around here. We work under the state government on health programs, specifically focusing on things like AIDS awareness and prevention. Most of our time is spent getting information out to the public and coordinating with various clinics across the region. There’s a lot of back-and-forth communication involved with different districts to make sure they have what they need. The building at 37 CB Lane isn't very large or modern, but we do all of our essential planning from this one spot. We don't have a marketing team or any glossy brochures to show off. Most of what we do is just practical health work and making sure medical supplies get where they are supposed to go. If you are coming down to visit us, the lanes are quite narrow, so finding a spot for a vehicle is always a bit of a nightmare. The staff here knows the local community pretty well by now. We’ve been operating from this same location for quite some time. It’s a busy atmosphere inside with phones ringing and people checking the latest health trends. We aren't looking to impress anyone with big words or fancy titles. It is just about doing the job the government gave us. We keep things moving and try to stay organized despite the constant flow of data and reports.
