I am Curtis Smith the Founder and a 38 year Survivor of HIV/AIDS along witn my family. We have lived in this rural region for 30 years. And in 2001 I became deathly ill and had to stop working to go on Social Security. In that process I could not find resources for me and my family that addressed our unique health challenges. With That being said, I had a Spiritual Epiphany that we were not alone and to become the change I wanted to see in my community and began reaching out to those living with HIV and saw such a profound need thus founded this Non-Profit.
