About DC Care
The mission of DC Care is to provide support to PLWHA (People Living with HIV/AIDS) and their families and collaborate with service providers to enhance the delivery and quality of HIV/AIDS services in Washington, DC.
DC Care supports PLWHA and their families through emergency financial assistance, training programs, and by supporting the HIV/AIDS service delivery workforce:
- Emergency Financial Assistance (EFA) programs provided by DC CARE support case managers’ efforts to reduce the barriers consumers face in access and adherence to care..
- In September 2011, we will launch a new training series in collaboration with the Office of Minority Health, the National Association of People with AIDS (NAPWA), and pharmaceutical industry partners to address provider and consumer training needs.
Our goal is to improve health outcomes by supporting the dedicated individuals and systems that serve the estimated 16,513 people known to be living with HIV/AIDS in Washington, DC.
