Project VIDA Was founded in 1992 to address the urgent needs of racial and ethnic minorities. Initially, the agency provided HIV education through street outreach services to area youth. Now, ProjectVIDA has expanded its community scope by initiating a variety of programs and direct services for people infected or affected by HIV/AIDS as well as prevention education programs for the larger population.
Project VIDA offers individual and group services for adults (25 & up) living with HIV/AIDS. The programs offer workshops focusing on prevention related topics for those living with HIV/AIDS to encourage healthier lifestyles and support groups that help reinforce coping skills, decrease psycho-social stress associated with living with HIV/AIDS. Also, there are individual (prevention/risk reduction) counseling sessions offered for a more personal one on one discussion. All services are offered in English and Spanish.
