About us
CAN Community Health (CAN), a not-for-profit, community-based organization with clinics in Florida, Arizona, New Jersey, South Carolina, Texas, and Virginia, has provided specialized medical care for over 30 years. What began as a small health clinic founded by our trailblazer Susan Terry in 1991 off East Ave in Sarasota, FL, has now transitioned into a national healthcare organization serving those affected by HIV, STDs, and Viral Hepatitis. We provide the below services through Ryan White grants, STD prevention funding, the 340B Federal Drug Discount Program*, and philanthropic fundraising. As a result, we are able to provide the following services to all of our clients regardless of their ability to pay. • HIV, Viral Hepatitis, And STI Testing & Medical Care • HIV Rapid Start • Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) • Non-Occupational Post Exposure Prophylaxis (nPEP) • Primary Care • Gender Affirming Medical Care • Dental Care • Ryan White Services • Sexual Health and Harm Reduction Education and Outreach • Medical Mobile Units • Medical Peer Navigation • Patient Care Coordination • Food/Nutrition Services • Support Groups • Tele-Health Services • Transportation Services • LGBTQIA+ Friendly Services With access to programs like these, we provide quality care, increase viral suppression, lower rates of STD/Hep C infections and improve quality of life in communities, and continue to seek collaborative relations with local, state, and national partners to remove treatment barriers for all individuals in care. Our incredible clinical and support staff members provide a safe space with our clinic locations ensuring geographical diversity and accessibility to area community members. We are most proud of the elite medical care we provide, speaking volumes about the passion of our teams. One of the most telling elements of care in HIV services includes the ability to link, retain, and sustain individuals in care.
