The HIV Education and Prevention Project of Alameda County (HEPPAC) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to halting the transmission of HIV and Hepatitis C among People Who Use Drugs (PWID) and their families in the East Bay Area. Through an integrated Harm Reduction model, HEPPAC provides medical services in non-clinical settings, focusing on communities of color.
HEPPAC's history dates back to 1992 when it was established as a response to the HIV epidemic among injection drug users in Alameda County. Over the years, HEPPAC has grown into a comprehensive program aimed at promoting protective behaviors and challenging stigmas surrounding HIV/AIDS. Committed to reducing the spread of HIV and Hepatitis C, HEPPAC serves as a vital point of access to medical care and substance use treatment in the community.
