Our Mission
The mission of HIV/HCV Resource Center is to provide direct services that empower and support people affected by HIV, Hepatitis C and substance use to live fully and with dignity. We work to improve health through harm reduction, education and advocacy. We strive to be a catalyst for positive change within our communities.
Our History
Originally founded over 30 years ago by volunteers as a support network for their friends who were sick and dying from AIDS related illnesses, the HIV/HCV Resource Center is now a comprehensive AIDS Service Organization. Located in Lebanon, New Hampshire, we offer a wide range of services that include individual/family case management, assistance with transportation to medical and mental health appointments, emergency financial and resource assistance (including housing, fuel, food, clothing and medical needs), HIV and HCV testing, and prevention education. In 2005, we expanded our mission to include individuals infected with and affected by Hepatitis C, and opened our first syringe exchange in 2006. All of our services are free of charge to residents of Windsor and Orange counties in Vermont and Grafton, Sullivan and Coos counties in New Hampshire.
