HIV CASE MANAGEMENT: HIV (HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS) IS THE VIRUS THAT CAUSES AIDS (ACQUIRED IMMUNODEFICIENCY SYNDROME) FOR WHICH THERE IS NO CURE. HIV HAS BEEN IMPACTING FAMILIES IN THE LOWCOUNTRY SINCE THE EARLY 1980S. ACCESS WAS CREATED AS A RESULT OF A GRASSROOTS EFFORT BY THE AREA'S FIRST AIDS PATIENTS, THEIR FAMILIES, FRIENDS AND CARE PARTNERS, HEALTH CARE WORKERS, AND CONCERNED CITIZENS. AS ANTI-RETROVIRAL MEDICATIONS BECAME AVAILABLE IN THE MID-1990S, THE NUMBER OF CLIENT DEATHS DROPPED DRAMATICALLY, AND OUR CASELOAD GREW EXPONENTIALLY. ACCESS STRIVES TO BUILD CLIENTS' CAPACITY TO LIVE SUCCESSFULLY WITH HIV DISEASE BY PROVIDING HIV CASE MANAGEMENT, TARGETING CORE SERVICES: MEDICAL AND ORAL HEALTH CARE, PRESCRIPTIONS, SUBSTANCE ABUSE, MENTAL ILLNESS, AND HOUSING. CLIENT SUCCESS IS DEFINED IN TWO WAYS: FIRST BY CLIENTS REMAINING HEALTHY AND NOT DEVELOPING OPPORTUNISTIC INFECTIONS THAT CATEGORIZE AIDS, AND SECOND BY PREVENTING THE TRANSMISSION OF HIV TO OTHERS. ACCORDING TO THE DECEMBER, 2008 SOUTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL (DHEC) HIV-STD SURVEILLANCE REPORT, BEAUFORT COUNTY'S HIV+ PERSONS ACCOUNT FOR 47% (506 PERSONS) OF THE TOTAL CASES IN THE REGION; COLLETON COUNTY 24% (255), HAMPTON COUNTY 14% (153). JASPER COUNTY'S HIV+ PERSONS ACCOUNT FOR 14% (153 PERSONS) OF THE TOTAL CASES IN THE REGION. OF THOSE 73% (686 PERSONS) HAVE DEVELOPED AIDS, AND OF THOSE, 31% (330 PERSONS) HAVE DIED. WITH THE PERSISTENT STIGMA AND DISCRIMINATION ASSOCIATED WITH HIV AND AIDS AND THE FEELINGS OF DEPRESSION, SHAME AND ISOLATION THAT ACCOMPANY PERSONS LIVING WITH THE DISEASE, MANY DO NOT EVEN SEEK TREATMENT UNTIL THE ONSET OF AIDS. AN HIV POSITIVE PERSON AND HIS/HER FAMILY ARE FACED WITH THE ADDITIONAL ECONOMIC IMPACT OF DEALING WITH A CATASTROPHIC ILLNESS. ALTHOUGH DRUGS USED IN COMBINATION, HAVE BEEN EFFECTIVE IN TREATMENT THE COST OF THESE DRUGS CAN DEPLETE A FAMILY BUDGET BY 20,000+ A YEAR. THIS DOES NOT ACCOUNT FOR PRESCRIPTIONS TO PREVENT AND/OR TREAT OPPORTUNISTIC INFECTIONS WHICH CAN BEFALL AN HIV-POSITIVE PERSON ANY TIME. A PRIORITY OF HIV CASE MANAGEMENT IS TO ENSURE CLIENTS HAVE ACCESS TO MEDICAL CARE AND MEDICATIONS. ONE FULL-TIME STAFF PERSON HAS BEEN DESIGNATED AS A BENEFITS SPECIALIST WHO RESEARCHES MEDICATION ASSISTANCE OPPORTUNITIES, ASSISTING BOTH CASE MANAGERS, AND CLIENTS. EVEN THEN, IN MOST CASES, THE PRESCRIPTION MEDICATION ASSISTANCE MAY ONLY BE FOR 90 DAYS, SO STAFF IS CONSTANTLY REVIEWING ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS FOR CLIENTS. ACCESS IS A MEMBER OF THE S.C. HIV/AIDS CARE CRISIS NETWORK, CREATED TO MOBILIZE A STATE-WIDE ADVOCACY EFFORT BRINGING ATTENTION AND EDUCATION TO THE SOUTH CAROLINA LEGISLATURE AND MEDIA CONCERNING THE ENORMOUS ECONOMIC IMPACT HIV/AIDS HAS ON THE STATE RESOURCES.

HIV, AND STD PREVENTION: ACCORDING TO THE LATEST DHEC SURVEILLANCE REPORT DATED DECEMBER, 2008, AIDS CASES AND ANNUAL RATES PER 100,000 POPULATION BY COUNTY THERE ARE 1067 REPORTED CASES OF HIV IN THE FOUR COUNTY SERVICE REGION KNOWN AS THE LOW COUNTRY HEALTH DISTRICT 8. JASPER COUNTY RANKS 16TH IN THE STATE, FOLLOWED BY COLLETON 18TH AND HAMPTON 14TH. BEAUFORT COUNTY RANKS 32TH ONLY BECAUSE OF ITS DRAMATICALLY LARGER POPULATION. COLLECTIVELY BEAUFORT AND JASPER COUNTIES ACCOUNT FOR 62% OF ALL REPORTED HIV INFECTIONS IN THE LOW COUNTY. THE HIGH INCIDENCE RANKING OF OUR NEIGHBORING COUNTIES IS WORTH NOTING BECAUSE BEAUFORT COUNTY IS THE ECONOMIC CENTER FOR THE REGION, RESULTING IN MANY PERSONS FROM OTHER COUNTIES COMMUTING TO EMPLOYMENT AND OTHER ACTIVITIES BOTH NORTH AND SOUTH OF THE BROAD RIVER. THE PRIORITY POPULATIONS THAT ARE SERVED BY OUR HIV PREVENTION PROGRAMS AS DEFINED BY THE NATIONAL CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION (CDC) ARE: HIV POSITIVE PERSONS AND AFRICAN AMERICAN MEN AND WOMEN BETWEEN THE AGES OF 25-44: THE CDC HAS ESTIMATED THAT FOR EVERY KNOWN HIV INFECTION, THERE COULD BE AN ADDITIONAL UNKNOWN. POTENTIALLY, THE SERVICE REGION COULD HAVE AN UNIDENTIFIED POPULATION OF 1000 MORE HIV POSITIVE PERSONS, HENCE THE NEED FOR CONTINUOUS TESTING. PRIMARY TARGET POPULATIONS RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING HIV PREVENTION PROGRAMS: COMMUNITY BASED TESTING & COUNSELING (FOR HIV+ PERSONS WHO ARE UNAWARE OF THEIR STATUS), INDIVIDUAL & GROUP LEVEL INTERVENTIONS, AND HEALTH COMMUNICATION/PUBLIC INFORMATION INTERVENTIONS. TO DATE ACCESS' HAS SERVED MORE THAN 650 HIV POSITIVE PERSONS, AND TESTED MORE THAN 1500 PERSONS IN THE PAST FIVE YEARS. OF THOSE, 290 ARE CONSIDERED ACTIVE CLIENTS. "OUR PEOPLE PERISH", FAITH-BASED INITIATIVE FOCUSES ON BUILDING CAPACITY WITHIN FAITH-BASED ORGANIZATIONS TO INCORPORATE REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH EDUCATION, COMMUNICATION SKILLS, STIGMA, CONDOM NEGOTIATION, HETEROSEXUAL RISK BEHAVIORS, DENIAL OF RISK, SELF-ESTEEM, AND MESSAGES ABOUT HEALTH SEXUAL RELATIONSHIPS IN THE SCOPE OF OVERALL HEALTH AND WELLNESS. THE HAMPTON ADOLESCENT PREGNANCY PREVENTION INITIATIVE (HAPPI) FOUNDED IN 1999 IS TO PLAN, ORGANIZE AND DELIVER ADOLESCENT PREGNANCY PREVENTION INTERVENTIONS TO TARGETED AT-RISK POPULATIONS IN HAMPTON COUNTY IN ORDER TO REDUCE THE INCIDENCE OF ADOLESCENT PREGNANCIES. A MAJOR MEASURABLE ACCOMPLISHMENT OF THE COUNCIL IS THE ACTUAL NUMBER OF ADOLESCENT BIRTHS CONSISTENTLY DECLINED AND THERE HAVE BEEN SIGNIFICANTLY LESS TOTAL PREGNANCIES SINCE 2002 THRU 2006 A 35.1% DECREASE HOWEVER RECENT STATISTICS SHOWS AN INCREASE IN TOTAL CASES FROM 2006 THRU 2008 IT WAS ESTIMATED THAT THERE WAS 43 TEEN PREGNANCIES IN HAMPTON COUNTY 10 BEING REPEATS. HAMPTON COUNTY RANKS 36 OUT OF 46 COUNTIES IN ACTUAL TEEN BIRTHS. "SHEAR DEVOTION" AND "CONDOM TRAILS" COMMUNITY INITIATIVES SUPPORT BEAUTY AND BARBER SHOPS PROVIDING TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO SHOP OWNERS AND STYLISTS ON HIV/STD PREVENTION EDUCATION.

HOMELESSNESS MANAGEMENT SERVICES: THIS PROGRAM ADDRESSES THE PROBLEM OF HOMELESSNESS AND CHRONIC HOMELESSNESS IN THE LOWCOUNTRY COUNTIES OF BEAUFORT, COLLETON, HAMPTON AND JASPER. THE LACK OF ADEQUATE LIVING INCOMES AND AFFORDABLE HOUSING CONTRIBUTE TREMENDOUSLY TO THE GROWING NEED OF TODAY. THIS PROGRAM IS THE RESULT OF A COMMUNITY-WIDE NEEDS ASSESSMENT CONDUCTED OVER TIME WHICH CONCLUDED THAT ONE OF THE GREATEST UNMET NEEDS IN THE AREA IS THE LACK OF COORDINATED STRENGTHS-BASED CASE MANAGEMENT FOR PERSONS/FAMILIES AT RISK FOR HOMELESSNESS, OR PERSONS/FAMILIES THAT ARE CHRONICALLY HOMELESS. THIS PROGRAM ALSO ADDRESSES ISSUES THAT BREAK THE CYCLES OF POVERTY AND IMPACT CHILDREN, ELDERLY AND THE WORKING POOR. "THERE ARE AS MANY REASONS FOR HOMELESSNESS AS THERE ARE PEOPLE ON THE STREETS." (ISLAND PACKET-OUR VIEW OPINION 1/13/08). THE PROGRAM PROVIDES SUBSIDIZED HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES FOR ELIGIBLE CLIENTS. THE CLIENT AND COMMUNITY CASE MANAGER FORMULATE A HOUSING SERVICE PLAN, MEET REGULARLY, AND WITH REFERRALS AND SUPPORT FROM OTHER PROVIDERS, MONITOR PROGRESS AND MAKE ADJUSTMENTS TO THE PLAN. THE GOAL OF THE PROGRAM IS TO BUILD THE CLIENTS CAPACITY TO SELF MANAGE AND ACHIEVE SELF SUFFICIENCY. IN 2006, A STATEWIDE SURVEY COUNTED 28 HOMELESS PEOPLE REGIONALLY. DURING 2008, ACCESS SERVED 39 ACTIVE CLIENTS AND MADE 139 REFERRALS TO OTHER COMMUNITY RESOURCES.

ORGANIZATION'S MISSION FORM 990 - ORGANIZATION'S MISSION ACCESS' MISSION, "EMPOWERING COMMUNITIES TO ACCESS A HEALTHY LIFE STYLE THROUGH EDUCATION AND SUPPORTIVE SERVICES", PROVIDING CASE MANAGEMENT AND PREVENTION INTERVENTIONS TO PERSONS AT-RISK OF, WITH, OR AFFECTED BY HIV/AIDS AND OTHER STDS AND HOMELESS PERSONS OR THOSE AT RISK OF BEING HOMELESS.
FIRST ACCOMPLISHMENT DESCRIPTION FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4A IS DEFINED IN TWO WAYS: FIRST BY CLIENTS REMAINING HEALTHY AND NOT DEVELOPING OPPORTUNISTIC INFECTIONS THAT CATEGORIZE AIDS, AND SECOND BY PREVENTING THE TRANSMISSION OF HIV TO OTHERS. ACCORDING TO THE DECEMBER, 2008 SOUTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL (DHEC) HIV-STD SURVEILLANCE REPORT, BEAUFORT COUNTY'S HIV+ PERSONS ACCOUNT FOR 47% (506 PERSONS) OF THE TOTAL CASES IN THE REGION; COLLETON COUNTY 24% (255), HAMPTON COUNTY 14% (153). JASPER COUNTY'S HIV+ PERSONS ACCOUNT FOR 14% (153 PERSONS) OF THE TOTAL CASES IN THE REGION. OF THOSE 73% (686 PERSONS) HAVE DEVELOPED AIDS, AND OF THOSE, 31% (330 PERSONS) HAVE DIED. WITH THE PERSISTENT STIGMA AND DISCRIMINATION ASSOCIATED WITH HIV AND AIDS AND THE FEELINGS OF DEPRESSION, SHAME AND ISOLATION THAT ACCOMPANY PERSONS LIVING WITH THE DISEASE, MANY DO NOT EVEN SEEK TREATMENT UNTIL THE ONSET OF AIDS. AN HIV POSITIVE PERSON AND HIS/HER FAMILY ARE FACED WITH THE ADDITIONAL ECONOMIC IMPACT OF DEALING WITH A CATASTROPHIC ILLNESS. ALTHOUGH DRUGS USED IN COMBINATION, HAVE BEEN EFFECTIVE IN TREATMENT THE COST OF THESE DRUGS CAN DEPLETE A FAMILY BUDGET BY 20,000+ A YEAR. THIS DOES NOT ACCOUNT FOR PRESCRIPTIONS TO PREVENT AND/OR TREAT OPPORTUNISTIC INFECTIONS WHICH CAN BEFALL AN HIV-POSITIVE PERSON ANY TIME. A PRIORITY OF HIV CASE MANAGEMENT IS TO ENSURE CLIENTS HAVE ACCESS TO MEDICAL CARE AND MEDICATIONS. ONE FULL-TIME STAFF PERSON HAS BEEN DESIGNATED AS A BENEFITS SPECIALIST WHO RESEARCHES MEDICATION ASSISTANCE OPPORTUNITIES, ASSISTING BOTH CASE MANAGERS, AND CLIENTS. EVEN THEN, IN MOST CASES, THE PRESCRIPTION MEDICATION ASSISTANCE MAY ONLY BE FOR 90 DAYS, SO STAFF IS CONSTANTLY REVIEWING ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS FOR CLIENTS. ACCESS IS A MEMBER OF THE S.C. HIV/AIDS CARE CRISIS NETWORK, CREATED TO MOBILIZE A STATE-WIDE ADVOCACY EFFORT BRINGING ATTENTION AND EDUCATION TO THE SOUTH CAROLINA LEGISLATURE AND MEDIA CONCERNING THE ENORMOUS ECONOMIC IMPACT HIV/AIDS HAS ON THE STATE RESOURCES.
SECOND ACCOMPLISHMENT DESCRIPTION FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4B OF THE BROAD RIVER. THE PRIORITY POPULATIONS THAT ARE SERVED BY OUR HIV PREVENTION PROGRAMS AS DEFINED BY THE NATIONAL CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION (CDC) ARE: HIV POSITIVE PERSONS AND AFRICAN AMERICAN MEN AND WOMEN BETWEEN THE AGES OF 25-44: THE CDC HAS ESTIMATED THAT FOR EVERY KNOWN HIV INFECTION, THERE COULD BE AN ADDITIONAL UNKNOWN. POTENTIALLY, THE SERVICE REGION COULD HAVE AN UNIDENTIFIED POPULATION OF 1000 MORE HIV POSITIVE PERSONS, HENCE THE NEED FOR CONTINUOUS TESTING. PRIMARY TARGET POPULATIONS RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING HIV PREVENTION PROGRAMS: COMMUNITY BASED TESTING & COUNSELING (FOR HIV+ PERSONS WHO ARE UNAWARE OF THEIR STATUS), INDIVIDUAL & GROUP LEVEL INTERVENTIONS, AND HEALTH COMMUNICATION/PUBLIC INFORMATION INTERVENTIONS. TO DATE ACCESS' HAS SERVED MORE THAN 650 HIV POSITIVE PERSONS, AND TESTED MORE THAN 1500 PERSONS IN THE PAST FIVE YEARS. OF THOSE, 290 ARE CONSIDERED ACTIVE CLIENTS. "OUR PEOPLE PERISH", FAITH-BASED INITIATIVE FOCUSES ON BUILDING CAPACITY WITHIN FAITH-BASED ORGANIZATIONS TO INCORPORATE REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH EDUCATION, COMMUNICATION SKILLS, STIGMA, CONDOM NEGOTIATION, HETEROSEXUAL RISK BEHAVIORS, DENIAL OF RISK, SELF-ESTEEM, AND MESSAGES ABOUT HEALTH SEXUAL RELATIONSHIPS IN THE SCOPE OF OVERALL HEALTH AND WELLNESS. THE HAMPTON ADOLESCENT PREGNANCY PREVENTION INITIATIVE (HAPPI) FOUNDED IN 1999 IS TO PLAN, ORGANIZE AND DELIVER ADOLESCENT PREGNANCY PREVENTION INTERVENTIONS TO TARGETED AT-RISK POPULATIONS IN HAMPTON COUNTY IN ORDER TO REDUCE THE INCIDENCE OF ADOLESCENT PREGNANCIES. A MAJOR MEASURABLE ACCOMPLISHMENT OF THE COUNCIL IS THE ACTUAL NUMBER OF ADOLESCENT BIRTHS CONSISTENTLY DECLINED AND THERE HAVE BEEN SIGNIFICANTLY LESS TOTAL PREGNANCIES SINCE 2002 THRU 2006 A 35.1% DECREASE HOWEVER RECENT STATISTICS SHOWS AN INCREASE IN TOTAL CASES FROM 2006 THRU 2008 IT WAS ESTIMATED THAT THERE WAS 43 TEEN PREGNANCIES IN HAMPTON COUNTY 10 BEING REPEATS. HAMPTON COUNTY RANKS 36 OUT OF 46 COUNTIES IN ACTUAL TEEN BIRTHS. "SHEAR DEVOTION" AND "CONDOM TRAILS" COMMUNITY INITIATIVES SUPPORT BEAUTY AND BARBER SHOPS PROVIDING TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO SHOP OWNERS AND STYLISTS ON HIV/STD PREVENTION EDUCATION.
THIRD ACCOMPLISHMENT DESCRIPTION FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4C (ISLAND PACKET-OUR VIEW OPINION 1/13/08). THE PROGRAM PROVIDES SUBSIDIZED HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES FOR ELIGIBLE CLIENTS. THE CLIENT AND COMMUNITY CASE MANAGER FORMULATE A HOUSING SERVICE PLAN, MEET REGULARLY, AND WITH REFERRALS AND SUPPORT FROM OTHER PROVIDERS, MONITOR PROGRESS AND MAKE ADJUSTMENTS TO THE PLAN. THE GOAL OF THE PROGRAM IS TO BUILD THE CLIENTS CAPACITY TO SELF MANAGE AND ACHIEVE SELF SUFFICIENCY. IN 2006, A STATEWIDE SURVEY COUNTED 28 HOMELESS PEOPLE REGIONALLY. DURING 2008, ACCESS SERVED 39 ACTIVE CLIENTS AND MADE 139 REFERRALS TO OTHER COMMUNITY RESOURCES.
