South Jersey AIDS Alliance

What South Jersey AIDS Alliance does

South Jersey AIDS Alliance is a community-based nonprofit charitable organization founded in 1985 and headquartered in Atlantic City, New Jersey. The organization provides a comprehensive suite of free HIV/AIDS treatment, case management, and support services, alongside harm reduction and opioid overdose prevention programs, serving people living with HIV/AIDS, at-risk community members, IV drug users, and their families across Atlantic, Cape May, and Cumberland counties in South Jersey.

The organization's core service portfolio includes a 24/7 telephone hotline (1-800-281-AIDS), case management, free transportation to medical appointments, registered nurse clinical services (HIV/Hepatitis C/STD testing, wound care, PrEP counseling, adult vaccinations), pharmaceutical assistance, food pantry, mental health counseling, and prevention education. Its harm reduction infrastructure comprises two dedicated Harm Reduction Centers (Oasis in Atlantic City and Rio Grande in Cape May County) plus a 24/7 community NaloxBox station network for anonymous Naloxone distribution and Fentanyl/Xylazine test strip distribution. A distinctive operational feature is the barrier-free, non-discriminatory service model — no ID, insurance, or questions are required.

The organization is funded primarily through individual donations and philanthropic support, processed via PayPal on its website. Revenue figures are not publicly disclosed. It operates six physical locations across three counties, employs 11-50 staff, and is led by CEO Georgett Shelton and CFO Micheal Rennick. Annual fundraising is anchored by the NJ AIDS Walk (scheduled for May 2, 2027). The organization is governed by a Board of Directors chaired by Stacey Zacharoff and includes an Advisory Board of non-voting members from the local government, legal, and medical communities.
