The Citizens Commission on AIDS for New York City and Northern New
Jersey was created by a consortium of foundations to stimulate private-
sector leadership in the region. Its activities included creating and seeking
endorsements for a set of principles on AIDS and the workplace, advocat

commission format has advantages as well as disadvantages, which are
explored in this case study.
