About us

Our Mission At Radiant Health Centers, our mission is to end HIV diseases for men, women, children and members of the LGBT community in Orange County through testing and prevention, linkage to high-quality medical care and equal treatment, as well as elimination of the stigma of HIV. Our Story A small group of volunteers founded the AIDS Services Foundation (ASF) Orange County in the late summer of 1985 because people were dying, had nowhere to turn and desperately needed help. Over the years, ASF went from helping people with AIDS die with dignity and compassion to supporting people living with HIV and their loved ones with comprehensive social services and access to medical resources as well as critical prevention and educational outreach services. It grew to become the largest and most comprehensive nonprofit HIV service provider in Orange County, with a staff of committed and caring individuals, a board of directors and advisory council of highly respected community leaders, and hundreds of dedicated volunteers and generous donors. In December 2017, ASF responded once again to the evolving nature of HIV disease and announced that it had adopted a new name and new look with the same compassion and caring. As Radiant Health Centers, we are in a better position to eliminate HIV and create a healthy Orange County for all. Medications are available today that can prevent the transmission of HIV from HIV positive people and also protect HIV negative people when taken daily. Radiant Health Centers will be expanding its services over time to create a stigma-free environment that can bridge the gap in medical services, reach at-risk populations in our LGBT community and cut the number of new HIV transmissions each week in Orange County from six to zero through greater health equity. Today, Radiant Health Centers helps more than 1,400 men, women, children, and families in Orange County living with or affected by HIV disease. Our social services include food, transportation, housing, emergency financial assistance, kids and family programs, support groups and HIV education and prevention services. Our medical services include medical case management, benefits counseling, mental health counseling and nutritional programs with more on the way.

    Incredible things happen when creative individuals come together for a greater cause! Recently, the Cartier Family social group donated dozens of handmade crocheted hats, scarves, and blankets to Radiant Health Centers for those in need.
