"One in four people living with HIV infection in the U.S. are Women"
Who We Are?
A Sister’s Gift Women’s Center (ASG) is a community based non - profit 501 (c) 3 agency which serves females (aged 13 and up) and their families living with or impacted by HIV/AIDS. ASG is the first stand-alone HIV/AIDS agency serving women in Dallas and the first in Texas to incorporate a female - gender-based Peer-lead intervention model. This model was designed to support a platform of women’s unique needs as a mothers, caregiver, and possible victim of domestic violence, hunger, homelessness and emotional distress due to isolation and feeling stigmatized.
ASG Provides housing counseling services, 30 day medical adherence follow-up, Intake sessions for referral/navigational and Peer support counseling, emergency food pantry, emergency food assistance and emergency transportation vouchers.
A Sister’s Gift is proud to be the 2017 founding” hub” for Positive Women’s Network – Dallas chapter. ASG Peer Volunteers were instrumental in bringing Peers together to form this national advocacy group.
Delivery of Our Services:
A Sister’s Gift is discreetly located in East Dallas by appointment only. Interested clients must call to schedule an appointment. Our Intake Line is open Monday – Thursday 9am – 2pm.
Closed Friday and weekends.
Our MISSION:
Proactively identify HIV positive females. Provide them with supplemental resources to enhance and prolong their quality of life and create community awareness to prevent the spread of the disease.
Daily Objective:
Our aim is to empower women to not be a victim of HIV – but the victor by incorporating “emotional and medical” wellness into her daily life. ASG is a vehicle isolated women to connect and share information to improve their lives.
VISION:
Our vision is to develop a strong network of support and information for women and their families to live a “higher” quality of life.
MAKING A DIFFERENCE:
Our Center operates with family-oriented philosophies within a caring atmosphere. Over 95% of our clients live below the poverty guidelines and 70% are in poor health. Our female-based programs promote “healthy thinking and living” through our Intake Process and monthly Group sessions. Our primary goal is to improve life-skills and promote “positive” thinking” to create “positive” medical outcomes for women.
