AIDS CONSORTIUM TO MEET ON THURSDAY

The SEMO Regional Consortium on AIDS will hold a meeting Thursday at 6:30 p.m. in the Harrison Room of Southeast Missouri Hospital.

A representative from Southeast Missouri State University will discuss the "Names Project," a quilt memorial to persons with AIDS. The quilt is traveling through the United States and is scheduled to be on display at the Show Me Center in November.

The video "Common Threads" also will be shown.

The consortium membership includes agencies, business and social organizations in the region. The organization's primary mission is to provide education on AIDS and to coordinate available services and resources in a nine-county area.

Interested individuals are invited to attend. For information, call Susan Janzow, 334-4822, ext. 5223, or Linda Thomason, 651-4177.
