Tracy Brown Of Tenderloin Health

Tracy Brown the executive director of Tenderloin Health in San Francisco had a heart attack last Wednesday. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers while he is recovering. Chiquita Tuttle will step in as the interim Executive Director.

"Tenderloin Health" is the new agency resulting from the merger of Continuum HIV Day Services (Continuum) and the Tenderloin AIDS Resource Center (TARC). Our mission is to optimize the health of the Tenderloin’s homeless, poor and most vulnerable residents. We serve those living with and at the greatest risk of acquiring HIV/AIDS, who have difficulty obtaining services elsewhere, especially due to substance use, mental illness, sexual orientation, gender identity, race and ethnicity, and/or other social barriers.

No one currently receiving assistance from Continuum or TARC will lose any of those services. No employees will lose their jobs due to the change, either. Use of the new name will begin upon acceptance of the merger filing from the State of California. Until that time, both entities will continue to operate but within a joint-board structure.

As the new entity works through its initial integration process, current program information can be found through the links to Continuum's and TARC's existing websites. You can access these sites by touching on either organization's logos above.

In an effort to minimize confusion we are making the consolidation of agency information to this website a priority and will redirect our former sites to this domain once the migration is complete. Thank you in advance for your patience as we work to consolidate Continuum and TARC into the more comprehensive TENDERLOIN HEALTH.
