Central Carolina Health Network

What Central Carolina Health Network does

Central Carolina Health Network (CCHN) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 1992 and headquartered in Greensboro, North Carolina. It serves as the designated local administrator for Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Parts B and D in Region 4, covering seven counties in North Carolina's Piedmont-Triad area: Alamance, Caswell, Guilford, Montgomery, Randolph, Rockingham, and Stanly. The organization provides comprehensive care services at no cost to uninsured and underinsured individuals and families living with HIV, including case management, medical care coordination, dental services, mental health counseling, housing assistance, emergency financial assistance, transportation, insurance premium and co-pay support, outreach and testing, medical nutrition therapy, and substance abuse treatment. In FY 2022-2023, CCHN facilitated more than 8,300 care services in coordination with its funded partner network.

CCHN does not operate proprietary technology; service delivery is coordinated through a network of 10+ partner organizations including Moses Cone Regional Center for Infectious Disease (RCID), Piedmont Health Services, Access Dental Care, Triad Health Project, HomeCare Providers, and Family Service of the Piedmont, plus multiple county housing authorities. Its business model is grant-funded and donation-supported rather than commercial: revenue streams include federal HRSA Ryan White funding (direct for Part D, pass-through for Part B), HUD HOPWA funding via the state and City of Greensboro, Cone Health Foundation support for the dental clinic, and tax-deductible individual donations. The organization is governed by a Board of Directors of 13–20 voting members and is led by President & CEO Melissa Coley. Its stated mission is to expand access to quality HIV care and reduce HIV transmission through education and prevention.

The operational footprint is geographically bounded to the Piedmont-Triad service area, and the funding model creates high concentration risk tied to federal Ryan White and HOPWA appropriations. Strategic posture is stable with measured service-line expansion, exemplified by two new peer support groups — 'Positive Aging' (men 55+) and 'Positive Peers' (men 18-24) — launching in Fall 2024.

Direct peers

• San Francisco AIDS Foundation: San Francisco AIDS Foundation delivers HIV prevention, testing, care navigation, and supportive services in San Francisco using a mix of federal Ryan White/HIV funding and philanthropy. It parallels CCHN's mix of federal grant administration plus individual donations to support HIV care and prevention in a defined metro region.
• APLA Health: APLA Health is a Ryan White-funded HIV/AIDS service organization providing medical, dental, behavioral health, and housing services in Los Angeles County. Like CCHN, it operates as a 501(c)(3) network coordinator delivering comprehensive care to uninsured/underinsured PLWH through a partner provider model under federal HIV funding.
• Gay Men's Health Crisis (GMHC): GMHC is one of the oldest HIV/AIDS service organizations in the U.S., providing case management, mental health, housing assistance, and prevention services in New York City. It is funded substantially through Ryan White/HIV-related federal programs and coordinates a broad network of care services analogous to CCHN's Piedmont-Triad operation.
• Whitman-Walker Health: Whitman-Walker Health is a Washington, D.C.-based community health center specializing in HIV/AIDS care, including medical, dental, mental health, and legal services. It functions as a Ryan White grantee and comprehensive HIV services network, directly comparable to CCHN's one-stop-shop delivery model.
• AIDS Foundation of Chicago: AIDS Foundation of Chicago coordinates HIV prevention, housing (HOPWA), and care services across the Chicago metropolitan region through a partner network model. Its funding mix of federal Ryan White/HOPWA grants plus private philanthropy closely mirrors CCHN's revenue structure.
• Cascade AIDS Project: Cascade AIDS Project is a Pacific Northwest HIV/AIDS services organization providing case management, housing, behavioral health, and prevention services across Oregon and Southwest Washington. Like CCHN, it operates as a regional network coordinator under Ryan White and HOPWA funding streams.

Emerging players

• Latino Commission on AIDS: The Latino Commission on AIDS operates HIV prevention, care coordination, and capacity-building programs across multiple U.S. regions with Ryan White and CDC funding. It shares CCHN's community-network delivery model and public-health-equity mission but operates at a broader multi-state scale.

Others

• NASTAD (National Alliance of State & Territorial AIDS Directors): NASTAD is a national nonprofit association representing state HIV/AIDS program directors who oversee Ryan White Part B funding allocations to regional administrators like CCHN. It is an ecosystem/funder-side peer rather than a direct service competitor but is materially comparable as an HIV public-health funding infrastructure organization.

Regional players

• Triangle AIDS Care Alliance (formerly Alliance of AIDS Services - Carolina): Triangle AIDS Care Alliance provides HIV case management, housing assistance, and supportive services in North Carolina's Triangle region (Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill). It is a direct in-state Ryan White peer administering overlapping federal programs in a different NC region than CCHN.
• Mecklenburg County Health Department HIV Care Program: Mecklenburg County's HIV/STD program delivers Ryan White-funded medical care, case management, and housing support across the Charlotte metro region of North Carolina. It is a public-sector peer providing the same Ryan White/HOPWA service portfolio as CCHN in a different NC jurisdiction.
