ActUp/RI, the Rhode Island chapter of ACT UP, the AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power, was formed in the spring of 1987, largely through the energies of Stephen Gendin, and continued as an active organization until 1993. Frequent targets of the group's demonstrations included the RI Department of Health, RI Project AIDS, and The Providence Journal.
ACT UP RI was re-formed in November 2011 and now meets monthly. It represented itself as a group of activists at ACT UP/NY’s 25th anniversary.[1]
