However, my chief concern was the removal of corrupt AIDS bureaucrat Gail Barouh for her misspending $179,000 in government funds as documented by a New York State Comptroller's audit. All of this was outlined in an email to the council.
My friends back East reminded me that the chair of the council is Marjorie Hill, pictured, a former executive director of the Gay Men's Health Crisis who was fired in September 2013 for numerous failures. For a refresher check out this Gay City News article about what led the GMHC board to can her.
This council isn't fully transparent and contains two members who've abused their powers as executive directors of HIV services agencies, showing just how bad things are in the Empire State in terms of AIDS accountability.
It pleases me to know my concerns have been heard and will be included in the council's minutes, but those are small potatoes compared to the large problems of corrupt bureaucrats Hill and Barouh and their ilk who run too many AIDS Inc groups and advisory panels.
This is the note Hill sent me this afternoon:
Your email was shared with me as Chair of the NYS AIDS Advisory Council. Thank you for your comments.
Beginning in 2015, the Council’s meeting agendas will be posted on the NYS Department of Health website as an attachment to the meeting notice. I have attached the agenda for the November 20, 2014 meeting to this email.
Meeting minutes from previous meetings are available for public inspection upon written request to the NYS Department of Health Records Access Office in accordance with Freedom of Information Law (FOIL).
Please note that the Council does not have the authority to appoint or remove members. Members of the Council are appointed as indicated by Public Health Law Article 27-E, Section 2778.
I have [included] the link to the statutory authority which explains this process. Your comments will be included in the public record for the November 20, 2014 meeting.

thank you for sharing this important information,
Let me share some information about GMHC and the scandals that are still going on under the new CEO Kelsey Loui. This link is about the abuse of power and money laundering at GMHC, http://latexball.blogspot.com/
this link is about how GMHC is cutting into the House Ball community's economy by millions of dollars and how they are manipulating the natural artistic progression and dividing the ballroom community. http://gmhcitsachop.blogspot.com/
this link is an inspiration and a satire about the GMHC scandals http://gmhcsatire.blogspot.com/
it continues to be an uphill battle for the community.
By the way I also contacted C. Virginia Fields, who is also on this advisory council, who did not respond after I brought the GMHC scandals to her attention, so please add her to the community abusers list please.
thank you , best Wolf
