Our programs

What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?

Medical Case Management

Medical Case Management (MCM) is a program for people living with HIV/AIDS that offers supportive, one-on-one case management services within a harm reduction framework. Our Medical Case Managers specialize in working with people who inject drugs, are unhoused, or face other challenges that make them especially vulnerable and in need of extra support managing their HIV care.

Case Managers establish long-term relationships with clients and work closely with them to coordinate medical and behavioral health care, navigate complex bureaucratic systems to access benefits and services, create individualized care plans, and support clients in meeting their goals. We also educate and empower clients to advocate for themselves and their needs in medical settings and in everyday life.

Data
  • We review compensation data across the organization (and by staff levels) to identify disparities by race.
  • We ask team members to identify racial disparities in their programs and / or portfolios.
  • We analyze disaggregated data and root causes of race disparities that impact the organization's programs, portfolios, and the populations served.
  • We disaggregate data to adjust programming goals to keep pace with changing needs of the communities we support.
  • We employ non-traditional ways of gathering feedback on programs and trainings, which may include interviews, roundtables, and external reviews with/by community stakeholders.
  • We disaggregate data by demographics, including race, in every policy and program measured.
  • We have long-term strategic plans and measurable goals for creating a culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
Policies and processes
  • We use a vetting process to identify vendors and partners that share our commitment to race equity.
  • We have a promotion process that anticipates and mitigates implicit and explicit biases about people of color serving in leadership positions.
  • We seek individuals from various race backgrounds for board and executive director/CEO positions within our organization.
  • We have community representation at the board level, either on the board itself or through a community advisory board.
  • We help senior leadership understand how to be inclusive leaders with learning approaches that emphasize reflection, iteration, and adaptability.
