After more than a decade at the Ontario AIDS Network, Tara Jewal begins a new chapter. We couldn’t let this moment pass without celebrating everything she has built and everyone she has touched along the way. Tara has been the heart of PLDI since its earliest years, guiding the program on behalf of the Ontario AIDS Network as it grew into a life-changing training ground for the community. Since 2006, PLDI has trained over 1,200 HIV-positive people in Ontario, building a collaborative model of leadership that has shaped a generation of advocates, mentors, and changemakers. That legacy belongs to Tara
