The Project of Primary Health Care

The Project of Primary Health Care The Project at Primary Health Care provides HIV testing, prevention, treatment, and supportive services. The change took place, as planned, on January 1, 2013.

Services include free HIV testing, PrEP, STI testing and treatment, case management, and connections to ongoing medical care through PHC clinics. The AIDS Project of Central Iowa formally joined forces with Primary Health Care, Inc. (PHC), a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and federally qualified community health center. The Project and PHC have been partnering for 20+ years to offer a broad array of services for Iowans at risk for and living with HIV. Now a full continuum of services from testing to treatment is available through one organization. Staff at both
agencies have been working together to not only maintain, but expand, access to care, support, and prevention services.
