TPAN Information

Our partnership with Vivent Health marks a significant milestone for TPAN, a grassroots organization that has been serving Chicago for more than 37 years. As a result of partnering with a nationally recognized HIV care leader, we are ushered into an era of integrated, culturally competent HIV care that will have a significant impact on Chicago's HIV landscape. Our collective mission is clear: to confront head-on the longstanding disparities in HIV healthcare in Chicago and contribute to Illinois' ambitious Get to Zero goals. Together, Vivent Health and TPAN pledge to leverage our combined expertise and resources to transform the delivery of HIV care and social services. We are thrilled to announce the forthcoming opening of an HIV Health Center in Chicago's Edgewater neighborhood. This initiative will establish a robust healthcare network accessible to individuals across the city affected by HIV. Building upon our existing programs, including case management, prevention services, substance misuse treatment, and support for LGBTQ+ youth, the Health Center will introduce a range of new services, all conveniently housed under one roof. These expanded services, including medical care, a food pantry, dental services, legal aid, housing assistance, and pharmacy services, represent a holistic approach to HIV care. Over the next 18 months, we will gradually introduce these offerings, starting with the opening of the medical clinic in August 2024, followed by the food pantry in the first quarter of 2025. With this expansion, Vivent Health/TPAN reaffirms its commitment to empowering individuals affected by HIV and to building a healthier, more inclusive Chicago for all. Together, we are poised to make a tangible difference in the lives of those we serve while advancing the cause of HIV care and health equity in our community.
