Stop AIDS Project (SAP) is a United States nonprofit organization established in 1985, that works to prevent HIV transmission among all gay, bisexual, and trans men in San Francisco, California, through multicultural, community based organising.[1]

Internationally recognised as a successful model of grassroots prevention and support, SAP brings diverse gay, bisexual, and trans men together to talk about the challenges and issues posed by human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) through neighbourhood outreach, workshops and community forums.

Their work extends beyond education — helping change behaviour, create personal commitment to safer sex, build community support for each individual, with the mission statement: HIV transmission can be prevented.
