The National HIV AIDS Housing Coalition (NHAHC) is a national non-profit organization founded in 1993 that is dedicated to securing safe, appropriate, and affordable housing for individuals at risk of and living with HIV. They work towards ending the HIV epidemic in America by addressing the housing needs of those affected, as housing is considered a crucial aspect of healthcare.
NHAHC focuses on prevention, testing, and long-term support, connecting high-risk populations experiencing homelessness to housing programs within HUD, ensuring newly diagnosed individuals are connected to housing within 3 days, and providing ongoing support through various funding streams and services. They advocate for increased funding for the HOPWA program, the only dedicated source of housing opportunities for persons living with AIDS, to meet the growing demand for safe and affordable housing for those affected by HIV.
