WHO ARE WE?

Northland Cares is a 501c3 non-profit organization specifically founded to meet the specialized needs of people living with HIV/AIDS in northern Arizona. The federal government estimates that between 1,200 and 1,400 individuals residing in this vast geographic, culturally diverse area are infected with HIV; however, only 10% of those people are currently enrolled in services.



Our programs and services are designed to create opportunities for people impacted by HIV to engage in a healthy, whole, and vibrant life. All services are provided in a nurturing, comfortable, caring, and professional environment and are provided regardless of ability to pay, language, sexual identity, mobility or other factors.

What Body Fluids Can Transmit HIV?
Blood

Pre-Seminal Fluid

Vaginal Fluids

Re**al Fluids

Breast Milk



These body fluids must come into contact with a mucous membrane or damaged tissue or be directly injected into the bloodstream for transmission to possibly occur. Mucous membranes are the soft, moist areas just inside the openings to your body. They can be found inside the mouth, nose, eyes, re**um, va**na, or the opening of the p***s.
