Our House provides a continuum of services in the treatment of HIV/AIDS.
HIV/AIDS is a complex and challenging disease that can often be overwhelming. The Our House team works with people with advanced HIV/AIDS who are having difficulty managing independent living. We tailor services for each individual that defines what “living well” means to them.
Our services are provided through the following programs and facilities:
