The Aliveness Projec

Basic needs: our nutrition programs provide daily meals, a food shelf, and medical nutrition therapy while our case management team helps provide access to healthcare and housing. Meal program: we served 34,602 meals to 857 members. Food shelf: we distributed 271,582 pounds of food and household items to 691 members. Case management: our case managers assisted 529 members during 6,560 billable hours.

Prevention: we provide targeted outreach to communities disproportionately affected by hiv through education, awareness, and strategies for eliminating stigma. We administered 2,423 hiv tests to people in high-risk populations and linked 37 people to medical care and other social services. We provided free prep (a preventative hiv medication) to 125 at risk people.

Community: our community center model provides a safe and supportive place for members to gather and build community. Anyone living with hiv can become a member, and members can access all of our services for free. In 2022, we served 1,154 members, including 175 new members.
