The M·A·C AIDS Fund considers four areas of funding as priority - 1. Link Between Poverty and AIDS - Funding for basic needs such as food and housing to those living with HIV/AIDS.  2. Models of Care - Developing hospitals and increasing the number of doctors and nurses in countries that need it the most.  3. Treatment Adherence - Developing peer-based programs to help people adhere to their treatment regimes. 4. Prevention - Programs with a specific focus on high risk populations such as youth, people over 50, and African Americans.
