As the epidemic has changed, ASF has developed new services for minorities, women, families, clients with chemical dependency and mental health problems as well as programs in Spanish and English to develop self-care, self-sufficiency and back to work skills.

History:
A small group of volunteers founded AIDS Services Foundation, Orange County (ASF) in late summer 1985, because people were dying, desperately needed help, and had nowhere to turn. ASF is now the largest and most comprehensive not-for-profit AIDS-service organization in Orange County, with a staff of over 60 committed and caring individuals, a 22-member board of directors and hundreds of dedicated volunteers.
