Broward House, Inc.

Broward House, Inc. was founded in 1988 by a group of concerned persons who realized that there were critical needs for quality care and support services for Broward County individuals who were HIV positive. Broward House, a 501(c)3 not for profit organization, served its first clients in July 1989 when it opened a fifty two bed assisted living facility in Fort Lauderdale exclusively serving men and women with HIV/AIDS. An extremely high percentage of our client base is previously homeless. As the needs of the HIV/AIDS community grew and evolved, Broward House responded and developed programs and services to meet those needs. Today, Broward House offers both assisted living and independent family living, medical respite, case management, client advocacy, HIV testing and counseling, street outreach, a variety of education and prevention programs, chemical dependency treatment, mental health therapy, and support groups. Broward House impacts the lives of Broward County residents living, at risk for, or affected by the HIV/AIDS virus every year.
