Canadian Treatment Action Council

The Canadian Treatment Action Council (CTAC) is a national non-governmental organization in Canada dedicated to promoting access to treatment, care, and support for individuals living with HIV and Hepatitis C. Founded in 1996, the organization operates at the intersection of community advocacy and health policy, working to ensure that healthcare systems and drug approval processes are responsive to patient needs. CTAC engages in policy research, capacity building, and multi-stakeholder consultations with government agencies, researchers, and the pharmaceutical industry. By addressing barriers to treatment equity and monitoring the drug pipeline, CTAC aims to improve health outcomes and the quality of life for affected populations across Canada.
