OUR PROGRAMS
We Think 4A Change is dedicated to central HIV causes which we believe are crucial in helping us achieve our goals. As a growing movement, we divide our time and efforts so that we can truly invest in each initiative. Read on to learn more.
Food Distribution &
Delivery Program
We are committed to ensuring that our homebound clients have access to nutritious food. In collaboration with local food banks, we deliver fresh produce and meat bi-monthly, right to their doorsteps. Additionally, as weather permits, we distribute food at 55th and Storer every 2nd and 4th Thursday of the month.
​
Our dedicated team goes beyond food delivery by conducting monthly wellness checks. These checks help us provide ongoing support, address emerging needs, and ensure our clients' well-being. Through this comprehensive approach, we strive to enhance the quality of life for those we serve, offering not just food, but also care and connection. Join us at 5th and Stoerer to support our mission and make a difference in our community.

Get, Stay & Thrive in Care
Our 'Get, Stay and Thrive in Care' program provides crucial support for individuals living with HIV/AIDS in Greater Cleveland. By eliminating obstacles to care, we offer transportation to medical appointments and supply technological resources for telehealth and educational opportunities. Our program ensures clients access necessary healthcare by arranging reliable transportation and providing services.
Additionally, we promote education and awareness through resources and workshops, empowering clients with knowledge about HIV/AIDS and overall health management. Our goal is to help individuals not just get into care but stay in care and thrive, improving health outcomes and enhancing their quality of life.
Outreach Initiatives
Our outreach initiatives encompass a wide range of crucial topics, including Criminalization Laws, Barriers and Stigma Reduction, HIV Health and Wellness (both emotional and financial), Advocacy, HIV/STD/Substance Use Prevention, and HIV Care Services. We also focus on facilitating access to medical care within local healthcare systems.
​
WT4AC Peer Navigators and Community Health Workers actively engage in HIV/STD education through community events, high schools, and senior living communities. We provide testing, workshops, and referrals, ensuring that at-risk individuals have accessible learning and testing opportunities.
Our comprehensive approach is designed to support and empower individuals by addressing their health and wellness needs holistically.
Emergency Financial Assistance
Our commitment to supporting the community is strengthened through local partnerships and grants. We offer essential services such as Uber rides to health appointments, emergency rent, utilities, and more. This ensures our clients can access necessary services without additional stress.
We understand that unexpected financial challenges can arise, and our goal is to provide a safety net to help individuals and families navigate these difficult times. Our financial assistance programs are designed to alleviate immediate burdens and promote long-term stability.
