Welcome to DAP Health: Desert AIDS Project's New Name and Expanded Mission
The name DAP Health more clearly conveys our commitment to the greater good and the diversity of over 8,000 people calling DAP Health their healthcare home. It also retains and honors our founding, with the letters DAP.
For the first time in our 36-year history, we are changing how the community identifies us, a move that will amplify our mission and values as the COVID crisis makes health equity more important than ever.
“Our patient-centered model of care promises patients that we are there for them, regardless of economic or HIV status,” said David Brinkman, DAP CEO. “This name change will help the public identify DAP as an advocacy-based health center with the capacity and heart to meet our ongoing public healthcare needs.”
