JRI Health provides support services to help people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) achieve the best possible health outcomes and self-sufficiency. We recognize that PLWHA are less likely to stay connected with health care and maintain their treatment regime if they are facing stressors such as homelessness, depression, isolation, lack of food, health insurance or other critical need. To address these concerns JRI Health offers case management, supported housing, housing search and advocacy, peer support, legal services and community health workers who provide intensive, home-based support. In addition, JRI Health seeks to prevent the further spread of HIV by working with high-risk groups disproportionately impacted by HIV. At Boston GLASS, GLBTQ youth and young adults can access HIV counseling and testing, mental health counseling, social support, housing search and advocacy, support groups, leadership development and other activities that help youth reduce potential risks, increase access to social supports and provide practical skills for healthy living. HIV counseling and testing is also available at our Framingham location, Program RISE.
In addition to providing services to PLWHA, JRI Health applies this model of wrap-around care to adults living with other disabilities such as mental illness and brain injury.
JRI Health prides itself on offering services in accordance with harm reduction principles, ensuring they are low-threshold, non-judgmental and designed with consumer input.
Beyond providing direct services, JRI Health also provides capacity building services to other mission-driven non-profits. Realize Resources, a program of JRI Health, offers a range of services to help individuals, teams and organizations achieve their mission and vision. Services include leadership coaching and development, skills-based training, strategic planning, clinical consultation and supervision, development and implementation of new service models and technical assistance.
