The Chicago Area AIDS Housing Plan: Year 4 Report Card – March 14, 2012
Friday, March 30, 2012
On March 14, 2012, Chicago partners from the HIV/AIDS housing sector gathered at Catholic Charities, Vincent Hall to revisit the Chicago Area AIDS Housing Plan: "A Place to Call Home" in the fourth year of its implementation. Key partners from the Legal Assistance Foundation, the Chicago Department of Public Health, and others from the community were recognized for their commitment to keeping people living with HIV/AIDS housed. In addition, this community meeting was an introduction to the process for the next 5 Year Plan: 2013-2017. Discussion included an overview of the opportunities and threats that HIV/AIDS Housing Providers are facing. Feedback and input was gathered from participants to be used toward the development of the new plan.
