HISTORY
The Four A's is a not-for-profit AIDS service organization. We provide one-on-one case management, housing assistance and other supportive services to people living with HIV/AIDS as well as HIV prevention case management and outreach, and public HIV education.

Established in 1985 as a volunteer help-line service in Anchorage, Four A's was the only organization in Alaska responding to the illness we now call HIV/AIDS. 2005 marks the Four A's 20th Anniversary and as the AIDS epidemic has altered over the years, Four A's has grown to meet the constantly changing needs of clients and has expanded its prevention activities.

Today, Four A's is guided by a 20 member, volunteer Board of Directors, staffed with 20 full and part-time employees, assisted by over 80 volunteers and enabled by the generosity of over 5000 donors in carrying out its mission. Currently, Four A's is providing direct services to over 305 persons living with HIV/AIDS and their families, and, providing prevention services to well over 30,000 persons annually.

HIV can infect anyone. HIV/AIDS affects everyone.
