2018 Action Wellness Annual Report 3

From the Executive Director

Dear Friends,

The City of Philadelphia Department of Public Health reports that low-income minorities continue to be disproportionately impacted by poverty, mental illness, substance abuse, and chronic illness. Individuals living in the city’s most disenfranchised neighborhoods such as West, North, and Kensington report poorer health outcomes due to a wide-range of barriers to accessing equitable care including stigma, discrimination, chronic homelessness, low-literacy, and unemployment/under-employment. Our primary focus is working to remove the many barriers that our most vulnerable citizens experience. Action Wellness remains

committed to social justice and we reaffirm our commitment to advocacy on behalf of our clients, staff and volunteers.

Action Wellness continues to successfully implement high-impact interventions which reduce barriers for vulnerable individuals in and around the City of Philadelphia. Our approach remains holistic, trauma-informed, client-centered and responsive to emerging issues faced by our clients.

Annually we serve 2,540 individuals with HIV and 388 clients who are living with other chronic illness. We are proud to report that overall, 89% of our clients remain in care and 93% of our HIV clients are virally suppressed.

Our work is far from complete, and while we live in challenging times, we are continuously presented with opportunities to stand up as allies and partners with the clients we serve. With your continued support, we can assist our clients to overcome the barriers that they face to achieving wellness, equality and access. We thank you for your support, and invite you to continue to work with us for a better Philadelphia.

We will continue to honor those who we have lost to AIDS with the promise that we will remain committed to ensuring that no one faces their illness alone.

Warmly,

Kevin J. Burns, LCSWExecutive Director
