Mission Statement

The Santa Cruz AIDS Project was founded in 1985 by a group of dedicated volunteers with the mission to lead a community response to the ever-changing HIV/AIDS pandemic, to enhance the quality of life through powerful support programs, to advocate effectively for the health and dignity of those living with HIV, and to reduce the spreads of HIV through results-oriented and measured education and prevention programs that are tailored to specific at-risk community groups and focused on the health of Santa Cruz County

History

The Santa Cruz AIDS Project (SCAP) is a community-based, non-profit organization providing the only comprehensive array of HIV/AIDS services and programs in Santa Cruz County. SCAP has developed a broad-based approach to this grave health threat in our community. Programs range from HIV prevention presentations in our schools to outreach of the street to compassionate care and advocacy for people living with HIV/AIDS.

The organization is lead by a board of directors comprised of outstanding community volunteers from diverse backgrounds and experience.
