HIV Alliance

Overview:

HIV Alliance was founded in Eugene, Oregon in 1994 to support people living with HIV/AIDS and prevent new HIV infections.

HIV Alliance is comprised of diverse individuals committed to reducing health disparities in our state, including higher rates of HIV and increased HIV-related health disparities that impact LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, unhoused communities, people impacted by behavioral health issues, people living in rural areas, and others who might find it difficult to access services from more traditional providers. This goal is core to our commitment to antiracism and to creating a more just and equitable Oregon. Our organization continues to listen to and learn from the voices of the people we serve, and we are honored to have built strong relationships with clients and community partners who are representative of Oregon’s strong diversity.

To achieve our mission, we work closely with a range of community organizations and providers that specialize in providing culturally responsive services. We value highly the input of our staff, board, and the people we serve in guiding our programs and believe strongly that ongoing inclusion is essential to appropriately and effectively addressing the needs of our clients.

HIV Alliance provides a range of HIV prevention and care services across Oregon. These include HIV coordination; Hepatitis C case management; free and confidential testing for HIV, Hepatitis C, and other sexually transmitted infections; harm reduction services (syringe exchange and overdose prevention); outreach to priority populations; housing/basic needs assistance; PrEP navigation; safer sex supplies and education; behavioral health counseling and peer support; primary care and HIV/Hepatitis C treatment; and medication assisted treatment for opioid use disorder. These services work together to provide comprehensive, harm reduction based, compassionate, client centered, and low barrier care.
