Services for people with HIV or AIDS

HIV/AIDS Services Administration (HASA) | NYC Human Resources Administration (HRA)

How it Works

HASA connects people with HIV/AIDS to services that help them live healthier and independent lives.

  • HASA centers are located in all 5 boroughs.
  • You will be assigned a caseworker who can help you develop a service plan.
    • This plan targets necessary benefits and provide support that is specific to your needs.
  • HASA can also assist you in applying for public benefits and services, including:
    • Medicaid
    • Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (food stamps)
    • Cash assistance
    • Housing and rental assistance
    • Home care and homemaking services
    • Mental health and substance abuse screening and treatment referrals
    • Job services
    • Transportation assistance
    • SSI or SSD application and appeal

Determine your eligibility
