Aisha through her work at The Hetrick Martin Institute (HMI) created a coalition of LGBTQ prevention Community Based Organization (CBO's) called the Kiki CBO Coalition and their first annual event was in August of 2009 The Global Warming Ball On The Pier. They continue to offer a Historical space for LGBTQ youth to come together to get their life and get connected to HIV/STI prevention messaging and resources on the Christopher Street Pier. This events showcased the ever growing Kiki Scene intervention that Aisha created during her work at GMHC. The Kiki Ball on the Pier is now an annual event and there have been 4 events so far and they continue to be a collaboration with the Kiki Parents and Kiki scene community members.
