Introduction 4. Coronavirus Testing In Summary

The protection against COVID-19 provided by various vaccines is real, but the need for education, counseling, testing, and treatment will remain tremendous throughout 2021 and beyond.

Introduction 3. Behavioral Health In Summary

Total health is equal parts physical and mental.

Increases in loneliness, anxiety, and grief—brought on by the pandemic—have multiplied the community’s behavioral health needs.

Introduction 2. Access to Healthcare In Summary

So many members of our community—people of color, people living with HIV, our transgender siblings, people living in poverty—are at higher risk of sickness and death because they lack access to healthcare.

Introduction 1. Ongoing HIV Care In Summary

HIV remains the cornerstone of DAP Health’s work.

During the first six months of the pandemic, our community experienced a significant spike in new HIV infections.

Since March 2020, DAP Health has continued to provide its wide array of lifesaving services to members of our community while also stepping up in a big way to play a major role in pandemic relief.

Thank you for joining us on this journey through our 2021 Hope Begins with Health campaign.

DAP Health was founded in 1984 by a group of grassroots volunteers whose goal was to combat HIV and support those affected by it right here in our back yard.

Ever since, DAP’s board, staff, and volunteers have not only remained steadfast in that original mission—they’re worked to make our revolutionary non-profit the award-winning, globally respected, multifaceted healthcare organization it is today.

At DAP Health, we pride ourselves on being humanitarian, inclusive, courageous, inventive, and conscientious. We understand that wellness brings hope—that health equity leads to equality.
