Our mission is dedicated to promoting health, wellness, and social justice for the communities most affected by HIV. We do this through offering sexual health and substance use services, advocating for those in need, and building strong partnerships.
Our strategic plan is built upon five core values that guide our work and our team : Justice, Dignity, Courage, Leadership, and Excellence .
