About AIDS Healthcare Foundation

AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF) is the largest AIDS organization in the United States.  AHF has provided care for more than 60,000 people, and administers more than 12,000 HIV tests annually.  AHF also conducts medical research to investigate potential new treatments and cures, provides HIV prevention education, and operates free treatment clinics in Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean.

Serving the HIV/AIDS Community in Florida
In Florida, AIDS Healthcare Foundation serves more than 10,000 people living with HIV/AIDS through a variety of programs, including a statewide disease management program, testing and prevention programs, its Jacksonville Healthcare Center, AHF Pharmacies and AHF’s managed care program.

Positive Healthcare Disease Management takes a comprehensive approach to the management of HIV disease, providing physician consultations and intensive care management focused on adherence to treatment regimens.  Each patient is assigned a registered nurse as his or her personal Care Manager.  The program also emphasizes education by disseminating clinical practice guidelines to both patients and providers.

Positive Healthcare Managed Care operates in Dade and Broward counties and is the nation’s first managed care program for HIV-positive people.

AHF’s Out of the Closet Thrift Store in Wilton Manors, Florida offers free HIV testing and treatment referral through an AHF Pharmacy built adjacent to the store.  AHF’s nonprofit pharmacies employ only HIV specialists; all profits received are reinvested in AHF’s local and global programs. 

A Legacy of Life
From its first days as a hospice, to now helping thousands around the world through life saving anti-retroviral therapy, AHF is leaving a legacy of life. AIDS Healthcare Foundation pledges to fight this disease no matter whom it afflicts, or where it is found. Only when HIV is eradicated from the globe will we fully meet our goal.
