About Project HOPE

Project HOPE was founded in 1995. We are part of the AIDS Council of Northeastern New York, a not-for-profit human service agency whose mission is to reduce the risk, fear, and incidence of HIV infection, encourage the independence of people living with or affected by HIV/AIDS, and promote understanding of their needs.

Project HOPE (HIV Outreach, Prevention and Education) Project HOPE is a trusted HIV/STD resource for the gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered community. Project HOPE services are provided in convenient locations and hours. We offer outreach and prevention education; free, confidential HIV and Syphilis testing and screening for Gonorrhea and Chlamydia; individualized risk reduction counseling and referrals and connections to a wide array of services, some provided by the AIDS Council, ranging from mental health and addictions issues to STD treatment to HIV+ case management.
