Welcome to ANKORS website for the Kootenays.

ANKORS (AIDS Network Kootenay Outreach and Support Society) was established in 1992 as a non-profit society. ANKORS provides a multitude of services. We are pleased to assist your inquiries by phone, mail and email or you can drop-in to one of our offices.

ANKORS programs are based on the belief that services are provided in a non-judgmental manner without prejudice that ensures individuals right to anonymity and confidential access. We serve those living with and at the greatest risk of acquiring HIV / AIDS and/or HCV, who have difficulty obtaining services elsewhere, especially due to substance use, mental illness, sexual orientation, gender identity, race and ethnicity, and/or other social barriers.

Please feel free to email us with any comments or suggestions on what we are presenting here.
