San Francisco HIV Frontline Organizing Group
(SF HIV FOG)
SF HIV FOG is a collaboration between San Francisco organizations serving people living with HIV. WE strive to support HIV Frontline-workers through training and networking events, resource and information sharing, and professional development opportunities.
What We Do
San Francisco HIV Frontline Organizing Group (SF HIV FOG) is a grassroots collaboration between community-based HIV service organizations and representatives of the San Francisco Department of Public Health. It provides training and professional networking opportunities for frontline workers in San Francisco. (e.g., social workers, client advocates, money managers, mental health clinicians, navigators, and benefits eligibility workers, etc.) To improve interagency collaboration and delivery of services to people living with HIV.
Background
In May 2015, a group of San Francisco HIV Frontline workers came together to discuss how the Affordable Care Act (ACA) would impact people living with HIV/AIDS and frontline workers who support them. SF HIV FOG grew out of this meeting.
