Member Spotlight: AIDS/HIV Services Group
ASG is a behavioral health organization dedicated to building community for people living with, affected by, or at risk for HIV or AIDS. We offer a variety of services to the community regardless of ability to pay or HIV status. All of our programs and services are aimed at helping people reach their wellness goals. Whether you are looking for care coordination, community resources, free HIV testing, mental health support, housing assistance, education, or life coaching, ASG is here for you and your family.
Like many AIDS Service Organizations, ASG began as a local response to the HIV epidemic. Twenty-five years ago, community members came together to provide volunteer-driven support to people who were often abandoned by families and friends. We did all we could to help individuals live and die in dignity. Over the past decade and a half, we have seen many changes both in the locus of the epidemic and in the available treatments. ASG began to provide professionally-staffed programs including medical case management, social services and mental health. As an organization we began to focus on the web of causation associated with the disease and in many ways our affirmation to serve people living with HIV regardless of ability to pay translated into serving only the most disadvantaged persons living with HIV/AIDS.
