To effect systematic change to dramatically improve the lives of people with HIV/AIDS and reduce infection and mortality rates.
How We Help
When someone comes into AIDS Alabama for testing and care, they can rest assured that they will be treated with dignity, respect, and above all compassion. We help anyone in need of care, and we do not discriminate.
We are passionate about health equity and believe everyone in our community deserves high-quality healthcare.
If a client is HIV positive we assign them to a social worker who connects them with a continuum of care which includes medical needs, financial and housing assistance, mental health counseling, nutrition support, peer groups and transportation. We continue to expand our social services to ensure more people from our community have timely, compassionate access to the health services they need.
