Harlem United

Founded by activists in 1988, Harlem United grew from a church-basement response to the AIDS crisis into an organization focused on health equity and community care. Its work includes HIV care and support for a range of healthcare needs, with an emphasis on dignity and reducing the effects of stigma.

Harlem United brings together healthcare, housing, and harm-reduction services. The organization helps people pursue their health goals, connects people with secure housing, and provides practical support for people who use drugs. It also advocates for social justice and recognizes the importance of healthy food, community, and personal support in quality of life. Learn more through the official Harlem United services page.
