More about Bailey-Boushay House: Opened in 1992 as the first facility built from the ground up to serve people with AIDS at end of life. Over the years, we have continued to pioneer highly skilled, compassionate care for people living with HIV/AIDS.

We were involved early in offering promising new antiretroviral drugs and drug combinations to our clients. We understand that medications alone were not enough- people needed support of all kinds to help them stay on their medications and we developed new programs to provide that support.
