Need Members for Faith Based Outreach Committee
The Faith Based Outreach Committee is looking for new members.  The Faith Based Outreach Committee is designed to find partnerships between HIV Alliance and other faith based organizations to help further the mission of HIV Alliance.  Some of the partnerships the committee has done in the past include, recruiting volunteers, holding educational workshops at church meetings or youth groups, speaking to congregations about the issues faced by HIV Alliance clients, and advertising HIV Alliance services and events.  Meetings are on the fourth Tuesday of every month between 12-1pm.  Let me know if you are interested.

Outreach with New Roads Staff
New Roads does street outreach to homeless and runaway youth at various times throughout the week.  They have offered to have a volunteer at outreach with the New Roads staff to promote HIV testing and provide referrals to HIV Alliance services.  Since times vary, just let me know if you are interested in doing outreach with New Roads and we will see what can be worked out.  You will need to have been working with clients in the HIV Alliance Prevention Department for a few months to qualify.
