became motivated
to do something
about AIDS because
he lives in San Francisco
and he found it impossible
to ignore.
Or maybe because he is a
gay man and the epidemic
hit his community first.
Or maybe he just cares an
awful lot.
Whatever the reason,
after leaving Jewish Family
Service in Los Angeles in
1985, Mr. Rose made a com-
mitment to the AIDS com-
munity and to doing work
with religious communities
— especially in educating,
mobilizing and involving
Jews.
As former executive direc-
tor of the National Jewish
AIDS Project, organization-
al development consultant
of the AIDS Interfaith
Network of Central
Maryland, AIDS Project
coordinator for Jewish
Family and Children's
Services of San Francisco,
and nine-year partner of
someone with AIDS, Mr.
Rose has a lot to say on the
subject of a national Jewish
response to the disease.
Oct. 3-4, Mr. Rose brings
his message to Detroit.
Sunday he will speak and
assist at volunteer training
for the Michigan Jewish
AIDS Coalition (MJAC).
That evening, youth will
hear his message through
B'nai Brith Youth
Organization (BBYO) pro-
gramming — Kishon AZA

will sponsor the event.
Monday morning, Mr.
Rose will address communi-
ty professionals at a Jewish
Federation of Metropolitan
Detroit breakfast. He will
wrap up his visit as the fea-
tured speaker at a MJAC
fund-raiser.
Mr. Rose said he gained
much insight as AIDS
Project coordinator for
Jewish Family and
Children's Services in San
Francisco. It was the first
Jewish full-time AIDS pro-
gram consisting of direct
service and education for all
Jews in the area.
"I became responsible for
bringing home the reality of
AIDS. This was our issue
even if it was difficult to
see. There were, and still
are, so many people hiding,
living invisibly due to the
remaining stigma," Mr.
Rose said.
All his work is really "a
natural outgrowth of my
identity as a Jew and as a
gay man."
Mr. Rose now works as
the HIV services manager
for the Tri-City Health

"It is the
framework of
religious life to
embrace and fight
for those who
cannot."

Center in Fremont, Calif.
However, he remains a con-
sultant and adviser to
Jewish communities
throughout the country.
Mr. Rose does not think
the Jewish community has
been unique in its response
to AIDS. Some churches
responded quickly while
others are still waiting.
However, he feels it is
important for the Jewish
community to take action
now for a variety of reasons.
"It is not unusual for reli-
gious communities to
respond to epidemics. It's
nothing new. But this isn't
just another health issue,"
Mr. Rose said. "It's our role
in the community to stand
with people when they need
