Our traditions tell us of people who were among us that had the gift of living their lives in both genders, spiritually, physically, that of both male and female. The Two Spirit identity does not match Western concepts of gay, lesbian or bisexual, nor does their cultural history or personal life stories. 2-Spirits is a nonprofit social service organization whose membership originally consisted of Aboriginal lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered people in North America. Due to the AIDS epidemic, the organization was prompted to have health, support and advocacy expertise. 2-Spirits programs and serivces include HIV/AIDS education, harm reduction tools and education, health promotion and practical support for Two Spirited people and other Aborginal persons living with or affected by HIV/AIDS.
