Illinois Attorney General Files Lawsuit Against HIV/AIDS Nonprofit

Lisa Madigan, Illinois Attorney General, filed a lawsuit against the Center for AIDS Prevention in July. The center is accused of unlawful fundraising and falsifying documents. Their registration was revoked 20 years ago, according to Madigan, but they have continued to accept donations throughout the state. If the Attorney General is successful, they could seize money raised at the center, ban members of the center from future charity work, and force them to pay back donations among other repercussions. The most extreme punishment would be shutting down the center once and for all by “revoking its corporate status.”
