Rites of Passage, originally called AIDS Care and Assistance, is a non profit agency which was founded in 1988 with a mission to provide services for terminally ill patients and to offer education on AIDS and on death and dying. Our philosophy and our work has been greatly influenced by Elisabeth Kubler-Ross who taught us that, "In our most anguished moments may reside the greatest of gifts - not only for ourselves but for the world." Our unique contribution has come through our use of art, video and photography. Through these mediums, we have been able to communicate our own vision as well as the teachings and wisdom of our patients to a worldwide audience.
