FROM THE

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR AND BOARD CHAIR Twenty-five years ago, a group of community volunteers gathered to discuss how to respond to an expanded need for compassionate services for people dying from AIDS. What had begun as a program of Waterloo Counseling Center under Paul Clover quickly evolved into a set of services that needed its own formal structure – AIDS Services of Austin. With just a few staff members supported by committed volunteers, AIDS Services of Austin provided compassionate care to men who were dying while also providing basic needs such as food, clothing, transportation, and financial support.

ASA’s first team of staff and volunteers at the W. 17th Street location.

Earlier this year a team of ASA staff and volunteers march in the Juneteenth parade.

The first fifteen years of the AIDS epidemic was marked by fear, shock, hatred, courage, passion, and love. Courageous friends and volunteers held hands of the sick and nursed them with compassion. Frustrated HIV positive people and supporters marched in Washington and Austin to demand a response and funding for services. Though various HIV medications, beginning with AZT, were released, the effect was only a delay of the inevitable.

With the release of a new class of medications in 1996– protease inhibitors – HIV positive people were finally given some hope that they could live with HIV. AIDS Services of Austin continued to serve our clients and patients that now needed an extended and comprehensive set of services to manage not only their HIV disease but also the associated complexities of medication adherence, side effects, ongoing dental care, and supportive services such as legal assistance, food bank, and case management. It was also imperative that AIDS Services of Austin take a primary role in HIV prevention activities, and it formalized its HIV outreach, education, and testing initiatives.

Today AIDS Services of Austin enhances the health and well-being of the community and people affected by HIV and AIDS through three primary initiatives: f Paving the way for clients and patients to access critical resources and

services to live well with HIV; f Expanding testing to at-risk individuals to stop the spread of HIV and

associated diseases; and, f Fighting HIV stigma and indifference - the single most significant

contributing cause to the continued HIV epidemic.

The successes in HIV treatment and service delivery have been transformative and provide the opportunity for people living with HIV to “live well”. . . IF they know their status and IF they enter into medical care early. AIDS Services of Austin believes that these successes serve as the cornerstones to addressing HIV in our community. We will continue to build on the legacy of service and success to continue our mission. We are expanding our services into an integrated health model through a new nursing medical case management program and expanded STD testing. As we expand our services we also will continue to build relationships with churches, businesses, and civic groups to support our outreach efforts while tearing down the barriers of stigma and indifference.

The Jack Sansing Dental Clinic provides restorative and preventative treatment for people living with HIV and AIDS.

We thank you for your commitment and continued ontinued support.

2011-2012 MAJOR ACHIEVEMENTS PEOPLE ARE FIGHTING STIGMA: In December of 2011, ASA collaborates with Jo Ann Santangelo, an Austin-based documentary photographer, to create and install a multimedia exhibit addressing the stigma around HIV and AIDS by putting human faces to the epidemic. Today this project challenges the stigma of HIV, has a permanent home in the halls of ASA’s main campus, and continues to inspire positive change in the lives of clients and others in the community who visit ASA. THE COMMUNITY IS LENDING A HAND: ServeOurCity, a multi-church, non-profit organization that raises funds for, and awareness about, specific needs in the city of Austin, hosts its Good Friday service for nearly 4,000 people in support of ASA. In April 2011, AIDS Services of Austin is selected as the recipient of nearly $31,000 in individual donations from the Good Friday Services at the Long Center. These churches come together to support people in need regardless of religion, race, or social status.

PEOPLE ARE SUPPORTED IN A NEW ENVIRONMENT: With support from St. David’s Foundation, Fromberg Construction, and Platero Design, ASA completes a full renovation of its offices and launches two public open houses to share the new face of its building with the

community. The architecture and design of the makeover intentionally considers the needs of the clients to be served in a warm and comfortable environment.

SUPPORTING A BETTER PLACE TO WORK: Nearly 70 percent of ASA employees participate in the first year of the retirement plan, which is supported by the Lee Manford Fund. ASA restructures leadership to provide staff development opportunities for more staff and to involve all staff in implementing ASA’s strategic plan.

TESTING IS EXPANDING: ASA continues to reach at-risk communities by expanding testing sites and adding more than 5 new testing locations, including Simpson United Methodist Church and the Mexican Consulate in east Austin, making testing more accessible city-wide. Efforts in Latino/a outreach also continue with a public health segment on Univision Austin educating Austin’s Spanish speaking communities on HIV and AIDS and the services available through ASA. Furthermore, ASA tested 1,089 people at-risk of infection in 2011 and consistently maintains a nearly 2% positivity rate, double the national average. This means ASA tests the right people, in the right places, at the right times.

1993

GENDER IDENTITY AND EXPRESSION ARE EMBRACED: ASA strives to better serve the transgender community. The Q Austin works with the Transgender Education Network of Texas (TENT) to host a Gender Diversity 101 Training to help educate the community about transgender and gender variant terminology and social concerns. Additionally, ASA’s staff participates in another Gender Diversity 101 workshop with TENT, focused on gender identity, medical issues, and insurance policies affecting the transgender and gender variant community.

OUTREACH IS EXPANDING: The National Week of Prayer for the Healing of AIDS led by the Black Faith-based Health Initiative brings national attention to the AIDS epidemic and how the faith communities are playing a role in AIDS prevention and education. During eight days, 16 pastors preach about HIV prevention, and the collaborative team facilitates a visionary testing initiative in which 345 people at 4 sites are tested for HIV on one day. Greater Mt. Zion Baptist Church and Simpson United Methodist Church are among the group of 16 churches to take a leading role in HIV outreach and education efforts.

HEALTHIER LIVING

Volunteers, donors, and staff enhance the health and well-being of the community and people in three ways: GUIDING THE WAY ASA helps people affected by HIV navigate the complex maze of social and medical services to access the care and knowledge they need to live well with HIV. ASA’s Food Bank provides menu options customized by a registered dietitian to help manage medication side effects and prevent wasting, with all selections meeting the FDA-recommended daily intake of calories and protein for an adult living with HIV. Clients also meet with staff dietitian for oneon-one dietary counseling.

ASA’s Jack Sansing Dental Clinic offers specialized restorative and preventative treatments. Medical case managers – who are licensed with a Master of Social Work – help people manage their HIV so that they can focus on living healthier lives.

In 2012, ASA receives funding to support a pilot program for a Nurse Medical Case Manager, enhancing the spectrum of case management services offered

by ASA. Clients are now able to meet with a skilled Registered Nurse to manage their medications and discuss personal health concerns.

EXPANDING TESTING HIV and STD testing is the gateway to a person’s well-being. It is a highly personal and confidential experience. ASA has partnered with community groups through special initiatives to expand testing from 600 tests annually to nearly 2,000 projected in 2013. Additionally, ASA is adding syphilis testing to its programs to help high-risk individuals reduce their risk of exposure while counseling them on life-skills and safer sex behaviors.

The Path and Project Fresh Start programs both provide comprehensive risk counseling to reduce the transmission of HIV. Project Fresh Start assists persons recently released from prison and who are at-risk for HIV or substance abuse to change unhealthy behaviors and establish strategies to achieve their life goals.

Community Promise staff and peer workers go out into the streets to build relationships with the highest risk communities and foster risk reduction behaviors.

The Voices/Voces program specifically works with community members on safer sex negotiation skills.

All of ASA’s prevention programs link at-risk persons to HIV testing.

1995

FIGHTING INDIFFERENCE AND STIGMA Indifference and stigma - fueled by myths, stereotypes, and fear- affect the spread of HIV more than any other factor. ASA has committed resources to building relationships within the community to engage diverse leaders and organizations in raising awareness about HIV. The Community Outreach Initiative is training volunteers to represent ASA at community and church health fairs.

The Board of Directors has established a Community Outreach Committee to foster relationships with key stakeholders and engage them in a dialogue about how HIV is affecting our community.

The Q Austin is a program of ASA that works with young gay men to build healthy social relationships while educating at-risk young adults that HIV is not curable and not as simple as taking a pill. The Women Rising Project is a collaborative program housed at ASA that supports HIV positive women while empowering them to de-stigmatize HIV in the greater community.

Partnerships with civic, faith, and community groups are critical to continuing a vigilant and focused dialogue in the greater Austin community.

A COMMUNITY BUILDING A VISION Clients and patients continue to benefit from the impact of St. David’s Foundation support. ASA’s Medical Case Managers provide assistance with medication adherence and retention in healthcare, resulting in improved medical health. Dental patients have access to oral surgery and a Patient Navigator to coordinate follow up care.

Under the visionary leadership of Pastor Gaylon Clark, Great Mount Zion Baptist Church has heightened HIV awareness in East Austin. The staff and congregation of GMZ continue to expand the message that knowing your HIV status is critical to the community, and they work in collaboration with ASA to provide HIV testing and programming.

In 2012, David Owen and the team at A List Partners engages in the start of a ten-year campaign to raise $1,000,000 for people living with HIV and AIDS and served by AIDS Services of Austin. David Owen and A List Partners donate a silver 2012 Toyota Prius to be raffled off throughout the year.

Driven by a passion to stop HIV transmission, Mr. Owen aims to help people affected by HIV and AIDS.

Launched in 1989, the Octopus Club generates nearly $200,000 per year through parties with a purpose. Facilitated only by community volunteers, teams of people produce two major events, Art Erotica and OctoTea, and several smaller spotlight events throughout the Austin area. All the funds raised support ASA’s Paul Kirby Emergency Assistance Fund, a fund that provides direct emergency financial support to people living with HIV and AIDS.

For 13 years, the Hill Country Ride for AIDS has partnered with AIDS Service Organizations throughout the Austin area to produce a bike ride aimed at raising funds for, and awareness about, the affect of HIV and AIDS on the Central Texas Community. Hundreds of cyclists ride each year to raise over $500,000 for ten beneficiaries, including ASA.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS What inspires my investment in the people that ASA serves?

Anna: I am inspired by the courage and faith of people affected by HIV and AIDS. Specifically, I’m inspired by their courage to stand up and tell their stories and to help in educating and inspiring others. I’m inspired by their faith in knowing that they have touched someone’s life and helped them to make the right choices for themselves.

Joah: The reason why I’m so committed to ASA is because, unlike, many other health and human services causes, there is still so much negative stigma associated with people infected with HIV and AIDS. It’s difficult enough to address the physical aspects of this disease, but to have the added challenges of fighting stigma is something I am really passionate about attacking.

Anna Sanchez

How does ASA improve our community’s health?

Anna: ASA improves the community’s health by continuously being at the forefront of preventative care and education. The team at ASA is always informing the highest risk individuals about the choices they can make to prevent the spread of the disease.

Joah: HIV and AIDS aren’t exactly hereditary. Unlike cancer or diabetes or heart disease, this is a health cause that can reap all the benefits of awareness on the front end rather than as a response to infection. ASA is working wonders to raise awareness, help those infected to live well, and reduce the spread of the disease in Central Texas.

How does ASA address the stigma associated with HIV and AIDS? Anna: At ASA, we believe that abolishing the stigma around HIV and AIDS begins with education and awareness. ASA is committed to spreading the word that HIV infection is a preventable disease. I believe the only thing a person can do to prevent HIV is to overcome their fear and talk about the disease. Talking about HIV will eliminate stigma.

Joah: Since joining the Board in 2011, I have been truly impressed by the compassion and commitment of the ASA staff. With compassion comes an ability to seek to understand, to listen, to be tuned into what infected people are going through. The commitment then enables ASA to build trust-based relationships with those infected and the larger community, and those relationships are paramount to being in a position to fight stigma directly and diligently. I am honored to be on the team working to reduce these negative stigmas.
