Housing Services and Health Management Programs for PLWH
Our organization not only offers health management programs for people with HIV, but we also provide housing support services that are designed to reduce or prevent their homelessness. The goal of this program is to increase the availability of decent, safe, and affordable housing for low-income persons living with HIV (PLWH).
Care Coordination
Care coordination is our organization’s comprehensive and specialized case management program. It connects individuals living with HIV to the resources they need to get optimal health and well-being.

Psychosocial Case Management
Good mental health and social well-being will help you live your life to the fullest and is essential to successfully treating HIV. For this reason, our psychosocial support services at FAP include the delivery of education and support to individuals, families, aging population, and monolingual Spanish-speaking clients.
Case management
Will be available to you on an ongoing basis, continually monitoring your needs and coordinating services without charging you any fees. If you or someone you know is living with HIV, please reach out to our dedicated case management teams so we can help you to recover.

Health Management Programs That Help You in Your Journey
An HIV diagnosis can worsen the severity of depression and anxiety symptoms. And since group therapy is proven to be a powerful treatment strategy, newly diagnosed clients experience positive reinforcement and reduced isolation when they interact with others coping successfully with HIV and living productive lives.
Mental health treatment has been demonstrated to increase HIV treatment adherence, improve health outcomes, and reduce viral transmission. We know this journey can be long and winding, but we will be there with you every step of the way. We are in this together.
What Is VAN-CONNECT?
VAN-CONNECT is a transportation program that provides “Curb-to-Curb” assisted transportation to seniors and individuals with disabilities. These can be people who cannot easily use other transportation services in the High Desert Region, San Bernardino, and other neighboring cities.
Food and Nutrition Assistance
At FAP, we see that clients who learn more about nutritious food consumption show improvement—sometimes drastic—in their disease management journey. This can influence additional aspects of their lives, including management of anxiety, depression, stress, and difficult life situations.
Additionally, PLWH whose basic nutritional needs are met are better equipped to adhere to HIV treatment regimens. This leads to improving health outcomes and overall well-being.
