[2:02] - AHF & ACQC: THE PERFECT MATCH
How affiliate relationships complete the puzzle
Ten years ago, AIDS Center of Queens County offered comprehensive wraparound services, but not medical and pharmacy services that could so deeply benefit their people. They became affiliates of AHF in order to take advantage of those capabilities, and in turn allow their patients to access these services to their benefit.
[3:49] - Looking Forward to the Future
Why organizations adopt affiliate roles with AHF
Before joining with AHF, Iris House was at a crossroads. Their leadership was questioning what the future of the organization looked like, and weren’t finding success with any of the organizations they were meeting with at the time. Ultimately, the strategic capabilities that an affiliate relationship with AHF allowed for made all the difference in helping Iris House meet their goals for the future.
[6:27] - New Kid on the Block
AHF’s newest affiliate on joining with the organization
Thursday’s Child is the newest AHF affiliate, and Executive Director Gregory Noone says that despite their different cultures, AHF and Thursday’s Child share an identical mission that makes them the perfect fit. Is the collaboration always seamless? Of course not. But the unified vision for the future brings out the best in everyone from both sides of the affiliation.
[9:07] - What Does It Mean to Be an Affiliate of AHF?
Hearing from three distinct voices
What does an affiliate partnership with AHF look like? To Rosemary Lopez and ACQC, it looks like expanded programming, testing, food preparation capabilities, and comprehensive services. For Ingrid Floyd and her team at Iris House, it means having a true partner both in doing the work and in reaching the community. And for Gregory Noone, it means that Thursday’s Child has access to a well of expertise that’s almost unmatched in the fight against AIDS and other public health & social justice issues.
