The Ministry of Health and Social Care established a new organisational unit on 28 September 1993 - the National AIDS Prevention Coordinating Office. As a result of the structural changes within the system of social care and the reform of the administration in Poland, verification of the existing HIV/AIDS structures became necessary. Based on the Resolution of the Minister of Health of 30 December 1999, the National AIDS Prevention Coordinating Office has been transformed into the National AIDS Centre, managed by the Director of the Office. In its structure the office has a Deputy Director, Chief Accountant and organizational units management of main sections. The change of the office's name relates to the organisational changes in the structure, but most of all it reflects the extension of the Office activities. Apart from the co-ordination of the prevention and education tasks, the Centre is monitoring and collaborating with the healthcare services in the area of fighting, preventing, diagnosing and HIV/AIDS treatment.
