Who We Are

The mission of the UCSF Alliance Health Project is to support the mental health and wellness of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) and HIV-affected communities in constructing healthy and meaningful lives. Since 1984, AHP has insisted on providing a safe harbor for our clients, one that is responsive to the behavioral health needs of LGBTQ+ folks with low incomes in San Francisco. We are fortunate to have a rich and storied history, and as we contemplate that history, we look toward the future with purpose and determination.
