LOS ANGELES — The largest nonprofit organization focused on HIV and AIDS has acquired a group of specialty pharmacies.

The AIDS Healthcare Foundation announced the acquisition of MOMS Pharmacy. Founded in 1983 and a division of Allion Healthcare, MOMS operates 12 pharmacies and MOMS Pharmacy Access Centers in California, Washington, Massachusetts, Connecticut and New York, providing a wide range of medications and services.
