HIV/AIDS Services

The HIV/AIDS Services Administration (HASA) assists individuals living with AIDS or HIV illness to live healthier, more independent lives. The program can help clients with individualized service plans to target necessary benefits and provide support that is specific to their medical situation and that will enhance their well-being. HASA clients receive ongoing case management and are assigned to a caseworker at one of our HASA centers, located in all 5 boroughs.

HASA services include intensive case management and assistance in applying for public benefits and services, including:

Medicaid

Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits

Cash assistance

Emergency transitional housing

Non-emergency housing

Rental assistance

Home care and homemaking services

Mental health and substance abuse screening and treatment referrals

Employment and vocational services

Transportation assistance

SSI or SSD application and appeal

Since August 29, 2016, New Yorkers no longer need an HIV-related illness to receive HASA services. All NYC residents with HIV or AIDS who meet financial need requirements are eligible.
