I have seen Colorado AIDS Project support many individuals through rough times by assisting them to meet their basic needs of shelter, food, and a feeling of worth. The agency has proven to be a fiscally responsible charity as well as holdngnhigh standards for their staff in providing their servies to the clients and the community at large. They work to prevent the spread of HIV as well as provide quality care for those already dealing with living with HIV. As a longtime employee, I have seen folks down on their luck receive the help they needed to get back on their feet. And with each passing of someone who lived with HIV/AIDS there is a compassionate staff person who did their best to assure qulaity of life to the end.
