The HIV/AIDS Program offers a variety of services. We serve men, women, seniors, young adults and people of all cultural backgrounds regardless of income.
We believe that:
- Everyone should know their status.
- If HIV positive, the sooner you are connected to medical care, the better your chances of living a longer and healthier life.
We connect people to a range of needed services including medical care, mental health services, supportive services and groups. Medical care is especially important because it can help improve the quality of life for a person who is HIV positive.
Services
Medical Case Management
We offer Medical Case Management as a gateway service for those who have recently found out they are HIV positive as well as for those who have been living with the virus for years. We provide people with the tools needed to live as healthily and independently as possible with HIV. Services respect your privacy and are free of charge.
To connect with Medical Case Management services, call the Health Information Hotline at 215-985-2437. You will need to mention that you are interested in receiving services with Family Service Association of Bucks County. We will then receive your referral from the Hotline, and a Medical Case Manager will call you within 24 to 48 hours of that referral.

History
We were the first agency in Bucks County to offer case management services to people who were HIV positive or living with AIDS during the height of the epidemic in the 1980s. Since then, our program has grown and changed along with the needs of people living with HIV.
