Welcome to Health People
Health People is unique in the United
States as a groundbreaking peer organization which helps people from low-income
communities become leaders to effectively fight chronic ill health. Started
in 1990 as a women’s AIDS prevention and support program, Health
People has grown to provide a full range of AIDS services for men, women
and families, as well as to start a large community asthma program, New
York’s first diabetes peer educators program and a community smoking
cessation program.

with compassion, determination and love.

We know that our prevention programs
are saving the lives of women and men today...preventing more children
from being orphaned tomorrow. And we know that our sensitive community-based
support helps hundreds of distraught parents deal with seemingly hopeless
situations so that children have a secure future.
