amfAR Trustee Phill Wilson was recently honored by POZ magazine as one of five 2024 Icons who “have made lasting contributions in the HIV community.” Also honored are pioneering advocates Cecilia Chung, Sean Strub, and the late Dennis deLeon and Hydeia Broadbent, who appeared in amfAR’s award-winning video interview series Epic Voices.
Among his many accomplishments, Wilson created and led the Black AIDS Institute, a think tank whose mission is to stop the AIDS pandemic in African American communities. He joined amfAR’s Board of Trustees in February 2019.
