STE Mission

Wellness AIDS Services, Inc.

assists in the care of individuals who are infected/affected by HIV/AIDS, and promotes education and prevention in the community. History
Wellness HIV/AIDS Services, Inc. was formed to serve as a catalyst for the empowerment of people affected by HIV and a leader in HIV-related harm reduction and sensitivity education in our community. In furtherance of this purpose, Wellness will continue to:
o P

rovide and/or advocate for comprehensive and coordinated emotional and physical health care and social services to persons living with HIV and their families. o Facilitate harm reduction for those whose behaviors place them at greatest risk for infection with HIV. o Serve as a community resource for information about HIV. Vision

Wellness HIV/AIDS Services, Inc. will be an independent and financially stable agency with a multi-cultural staff and dozens of well-trained volunteers. Based upon detailed marketing and development plans and a record of quality services, the agency will become recognized as the “premiere” HIV authority in the community it serves. The focus and consolidation of the agency’s efforts will be reflected in its comprehensive model for the prevention of HIV and its effects, following three courses of prevention:
o Primary: To raise awareness and prevent new infection
o Secondary: To prevent the onset of symptoms among those already infected
o Tertiary: To prevent morbidity and morality among those who are already experiencing symptoms
All three approaches will be based upon the most current research conducted in both traditional and nontraditional medicine and the behavioral sciences and will rely heavily upon a family systems approach to harm reduction.

📢 Hoy es el Día Nacional de la Sobredosis, un día dedicado a crear conciencia sobre el impacto devastador de las sobredosis de dr**as y apoyar a quienes se ven afectados. 🎗️

Nos enorgullece haber participado en esta causa importante al organizar un evento especial en la Biblioteca Pública de Flint. 🏛️ Como parte del programa, proyectamos nuestro poderoso cortometraje "Everyday People", que arroja luz sobre las dificultades que enfrentan las personas afectadas por la epidemia de opioides y la resiliencia que demuestran cada día. 🎬

A través de este evento, buscamos fomentar la comprensión, la compasión y la empatía hacia quienes se ven afectados por esta epidemia y crear una comunidad de apoyo. 💙 Fue un privilegio reunirnos con amigos, miembros de la comunidad y organizaciones para entablar conversaciones significativas sobre este apremiante problema.

Juntos, podemos marcar la diferencia al difundir la conciencia, abogar por recursos y promover una sociedad libre de estigmas.

📢 Important Announcement 📢

Increase in Co***ne Overdoses

We want to bring your attention to a serious issue that has arisen in our area. There has been a significant increase in co***ne overdoses recently, posing a real threat to the health and well-being of our community. We believe it is crucial to address this issue with a proactive approach to ensure everyone's safety.

If you or someone you know is concerned about this issue and requires immediate assistance, we are here to help. We have access to Naloxone, a life-saving medication that can reverse the effects of opioid overdose, including those caused by fentanyl-laced substances. Additionally, we can provide Fentanyl test strips to help identify the presence of this potent substance.

To maintain privacy and confidentiality, please feel free to direct message us. We understand the sensitivity of this matter and will handle all inquiries discreetly. Our primary goal is to ensure the well-being of our community members and prevent any harm caused by these dangerous substances.

Remember, it's essential to stay informed, take precautions, and support one another during these challenging times.

Together, we can make a difference and safeguard the health and safety of our community. Let's look out for one another and combat this issue collectively.

Stay safe, stay informed, and don't hesitate to reach out!

When looking to reduce or quit smoking, here's some quick ideas on things that you might be able to find around the house that will help you substitute in a moment's notice.

To***co use typically suppresses hunger and some people may find themselves gaining weight while they are trying to reduce, handy snacks such as apples, carrot sticks or nuts could assist during that transitional period of managing and creating new coping methods in your journey.

Check out the link below for more ideas:

https://60plus.smokefree.gov/
Smoking cessation and harm reduction are important focuses when it comes to HIV living.

"Smoking has many negative health effects. People with HIV who smoke are more likely than people with HIV who don’t smoke to

Develop lung cancer, head and neck cancers, cervical and a**l cancers, and other cancers.

Develop bacterial pneumonia, Pneumocystis jiroveciipneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and heart disease.

Develop conditions that affect the mouth, such as oral candidiasis (thrush) and oral hairy leukoplakia.

Have a poorer response to HIV treatment."
https://www.mentalhealth.va.gov/quit-to***co/docs/HIVandTo***coUse.pdf
"It doesn’t matter how old you are or how long you’ve been smoking, quitting smoking at any time improves your health. When you quit, you are likely to add years to your life, breathe more easily, have more energy, and save money. "

https://www.nia.nih.gov/health/quitting-smoking-older-adults
📣🚭"How Does Smoking Affect People with HIV?
Smoking is dangerous for everyone. It harms nearly every organ of the body, causes many diseases, and affects the health of smokers in general. The risks of serious health consequences are much higher for people with HIV, who smoke at twice the rate of the general population."📣🚭
