AIDS Assistance Program
The AIDS Assistance Program was founded in Palm
Springs, California in the Spring of 1991. At that time
a small group of concerned citizens, led by the late
Gloria Greene and Jeannette Rockefeller, provided meals
to members of the community with low incomes and
suffering with HIV/AIDS. Since that time, the AIDS
Assistance Program's client rosters have grown from
approximately 20 to well over 350 persons and their
dependents.
