For Alameda County residents to combat HIV/AIDS, the need for a comprehensive source of information on HIV/AIDS services is imperative. We are pleased to provide this 3rd updated printing of the 2008 Positive Resources Directory : - to help people living with HIV/AIDS find out about and connect to the services they need, and - to assist clinicians and service providers in their efforts to address the challenges of HIV/AIDS. We believe that the information in this Directory will help to improve access to primary care and supportive service programs throughout Alameda County and beyond. As we go to press, the CA State Office of AIDS is implementing very substantial funding reductions for prevention and testing, early intervention, case management and therapeutic monitoring programs. Before referring clients, we suggest that service providers contact the agencies listed to confirm the ongoing availability of HIV services. We will continue to work with our government colleagues and community partners to maintain the Alameda County continuum of HIV services. We hope the 2008 Positive Resources Directory serves as a helpful tool to empower people living with HIV/AIDS.
