REMOVING BARRIERS

In 2007, PATF is focusing on removing the physical, psycological and social barriers that keep HIV infection rates climbing and stigmatize those living with HIV/AIDS. With your generous donation you can help remove the barriers of:

APATHY & DENIALyour donation will help PATF resound the alarm about the HIV/AIDS crisis in our community through our communications efforts and our Speakers Bureau.

IGNORANCE - your donation will enhance PATF's outreach to teens and young adults at colleges, concerts, churches, and community centers to educate them about the seriousness of HIV/AIDS and reduce their risk of contracting the virus.

HOPELESSNESS & FEARyour donation will make it possible for our case managers to assess each client's unique physical, practical and psychological needs and link him/her to available resources.  

POVERTY - your donation will ensure that our food pantry, housing and emergency assistance programs are available to meet our client's basic needs.

ACCESSIBILITY - your donation will enable PATF to move to clean, newly-renovated, second-floor office space, designed for maximum accessibility and located within one block of five major bus stops.

LIMITED RESOURCES - your donation will allow PATF to be more financially independent and less reliant on restirctive and uncertain government funding.
