HHOME & GTZ-ICM
HIV Homeless Outreach and Mobile Engagement (HHOME)
HHOME, for its first five years, was a Special Project of National Significance (SPNS) program. In that five years, HHOME was able to successfully support over 100 individuals living with HIV/AIDS who were experiencing homelessness, in reconnecting to primary care and entering long-term housing. Today, HHOME has become an important Intensive Case Management program. HHOME is a partnership between San Francisco Community Health Center, SF Homeless Outreach Team, and the SF Department of Public Health.

People living with HIV/AIDS with a CD4 of less than 200 and who are experiencing homelessness in the city and county of San Francisco. We also work with transitional-age youth, trans-identified women, pregnant women, and those experiencing imminent eviction.
