The 35 year AHF Odyssey




Condoms are 98% effective and still the best way to prevent unwanted pregnancy, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and HIV. AHF offers free condoms at almost all our locations which makes it even easier to “Just Use It” and cover your banana when the time is ripe. You’ll want to visit UseACondom.com to find the AHF location nearest you because practicing safer sex always is “a-peeling.”

Did you know there’s a new strain of gonorrhea in the U.S. that’s more resistant to antibiotics? This is the first time a gonorrhea strain has appeared resistant to five classes of antibiotics in the U.S. That means it’s more important than ever to get tested, use condoms, and protect yourself against new strains of drug-resistant STDs. You can get free STD tests at any AHF Wellness Center nationwide, so don’t wait. Get tested today.

Expert Healthcare
AHF’s path to becoming the largest provider of HIV/AIDS care in the U.S. began with a small group of dedicated activists in Los Angeles in the 1980s who had a simple humanitarian goal: give the people dying of AIDS a safe, dignified, and compassionate place to spend their final days. AIDS Hospice Foundation was officially established in June 1987, and the following year the group opened the Chris Brownlie Hospice, L.A.’s first licensed hospice for people suffering from AIDS. By July 1990, AHF realized that the need for specialized medical care was fortunately outpacing the need for AIDS hospice care, and the group changed its name to AIDS Healthcare Foundation as its focus shifted to providing cutting-edge medicine and advocacy, regardless of ability to pay.
