Affordable Housing Program
Golden Rainbow’s Affordable Housing Program is currently the only permanent housing program designed for people living with HIV/AIDS in Southern Nevada. We provide housing to those affected by HIV/AIDS in Clark County, Nevada, who would otherwise have no place to call home. Our affordable housing program currently consists of 8 apartments and a three-bedroom home, providing housing and all utilities for a small monthly rent payment. The units are affordable and designed to be a place where our residents can feel at home, maintain medical care and live a normal life.

This is an education program provided in cooperation with Aid for AIDS of Nevada (AFAN), Golden Rainbow and the Clark County Health District. Designed to bring awareness to a continuing public health crisis, the "THINK" campaign will run on local radio and in local print publications to inspire audiences to THINK about HIV and the lives behind the statistics

HIV/AIDS remains a health crisis and is a global issue that needs to be addressed. A series of powerful messages in print and broadcast media will focus on statistics and educating people to THINK about their actions. The focus of the THINK campaign is to highlight the shocking statistics that affect all of us, and make people stop and "THINK" about their actions and the consequences that come with actions like unprotected sex and drug use.
