Zori Rodríguez
CEO, SAVE, Inc.
Friends of SAVE,
SAVE has long been a voice for those who cannot speak for themselves, a refuge for those with nowhere else to go. This advocacy
stems from our founding, a lesson well learned from the altruists who
saw a need in the community and sprung to action. SAVE, Inc. was
founded as a final stop for those dying from the opportunistic infections
that accompany AIDS, a place to die with dignity and understanding.
SAVE, Inc. is now a place of life, a place to find health, happiness and
a future. As a direct result of the
efforts of so many in our local and
global community; SAVE is no longer
just a place for goodbyes but a place
of healing. It has been a remarkable journey, we have fought this
pandemic in the cities and towns of
our 15 county service area for well
over twenty years – but the fight is
far from over.
HIV is not abating, it is not a disease
of yesterday, it is here now and if we
hope for a better tomorrow we must
act today. Both locally and nationally
we are seeing a rise in new infections; primarily in people under the
age of 25, African Americans, minority woman, young men who have sex
with men, and those living in poverty.
This is the next generation of HIV.
Young people becoming infected
before they can vote, spending the
rest of their lives fighting discrimination, poverty, a broken healthcare
system, and their own immune
systems. These trends are a frightening reality, HIV is creeping back
into the lives of young Americans - it
is time for us to rise to action. Again
we must be the voice for those in
need; we must be at the vanguard of
a renewed effort to curb AIDS.
HIV is sometimes a forgotten plague
in the US, a disease of another
continent, of another era. We must
remind our neighbors, friends, city
council members, congress persons,
and senators that this is not the
case. In fact, to receive US AIDS
funding (PEPFAR) foreign nations
must have a national plan to combat
HIV/AIDS, yet the United States has
no such plan. There is a moment in
this country, an opportunity to remake the future of this disease, but
this effort will require advocates to
spread the message; from the culde-sacs of Prairie Village to Jefferson City and on to Washington.
Ringing the bell, alerting our community to the crises is a part of the
solution, an integral step. Yet we
must also continue to actively fight
HIV in our community everyday.
Housing is a fundamental and potent
weapon in this struggle. Supportive Housing has been proven to not
only reduce the deadly force of HIV
(lower viral counts, higher T cell
counts, decreased fatalities) but to
also reduce risk factors for transmission – preventing the spread of HIV.
For almost five years now we have
known through research and scientific evaluation that housing is the most
urgent, unmet need for those living
with HIV, and we now have proof that
housing is a powerful intervention in
fighting this disease. We have been
given the information and the impe-
tus to act. Now we must answer.
I firmly believe that we can fight
back this resurgent foe, but the
time is now.
We are so grateful for your support
over the past year, so much has
been accomplished and so much
remains to be done. But, with
your support, SAVE will be there
to serve as a safety net, a home,
and a place of new beginnings for
those living with or at risk for HIV/
AIDS in Kansas City. On behalf of
our staff and the nearly 700 individuals we serve – thank you. You
are the heart of SAVE, Inc.!

--NAHC
From its very inception, SAVE, Inc. has been the very embodiment of community
and compassion in action. SAVE was born out of crisis; a crushing need for understanding and care for those afflicted by AIDS and a group of volunteers who were
moved to action. SAVE, Inc. has grown
from the first AIDS-specific hospice in
Missouri (8 beds) to an organization
that houses almost 700 individuals
and families every month. This growth
is an expression of the altruism that
pervades Kansas City. The munificent
individuals, corporations, and foundations listed in the pages that follow are
the forces that have allowed SAVE to
exponentially expand to meet the need
in our community, and the personifica-
tion of what makes Kansas City the
quintessential “home”town. Truly,
what more profound statement can be
made of our values, by housing our
neighbors we strengthen our community. SAVE was founded because too
many of those dying from HIV/AIDS
were left homeless, penniless, and
alone. SAVE, Inc. was the right thing
to do. Yet, the power of SAVE’s services are so much more than just support for those fighting HIV, it is a key

to stopping the spread. We now know
that housing is a key to preventing the
spread of HIV.
After years of research, concrete evidence has arisen that codifies the reality that supportive housing for those
living with or at risk for HIV/AIDS is not
only essential to living with the disease
but also a key intervention in preventing its transmission. By providing
stable housing we can; reduce the risk
of exposure and transmission, improve
access to medical care, and subsequently improve medical outcomes.
In fact, housing has been proven to
be the lynch pin to not only ensuring
entry into medical care (and Antiviral
Therapy), but also in preventing those
infected from falling out of treatment
and improving medical adherence. In
short, as a result of supportive housing and its impact on healthcare, we
find drastically lower viral loads in
those people stably housed. Thus, we
reduce mortality and the likelihood of
transmission.
als into exaggerated risk of violence,
drug addiction, and transaction sex –
forcing people into impossible choices,
where mere survival trumps fear of HIV.
Housing is a structural intervention
that has an independent, casual role in
HIV prevention.
These realities have led science to a
realization that many of us have known
for decades, that HIV transmission is
not necessarily a result of a “risky perWe now have proof of the reality that

This is the story of one of SAVE’s clients.
Due to the stigma that still haunts those
affected by HIV, names have been altered*
H
e waited in a small room for what seemed like
an eternity; the dull hum of the waiting room
and sounds of shuffling feet echoing in his ears.
He waited until the door opened. He waited until
the answer came and everything came crashing
down. The wait was over. He was HIV positive. It
was the day before his 18th birthday.
J
amal* discovered he was HIV positive on the
eve of adulthood. He was diagnosed with fullblown AIDS before he turned twenty-one. It is
nearly impossible to understand the tumult and
seismic shifts he endured during this brief period
where life dealt him blow after blow and hope
faded dimmer by the hour. Yet when you look into
his eyes and listen to him speak hopelessness or
resignation is far from what you find. Jamal is
planning for the future, crafting a better tomorrow
indicative of the promise his youth possesses.
He is hopeful because he has a place to begin, a
place to heal, a place he can call home. Jamal is
one of the well over 600 individuals that SAVE, Inc.
houses every month. His story is not easy to tell
or to hear. Yet what becomes clear is that for the
first time in too long, Jamal is choosing his path
rather than just waiting for life to dictate his next
move. He can live a life of dignity – and dignity
starts at home…
A
fter I found out, I wasn’t sure what to do, so
for awhile I didn’t do much. I got kicked out of
my house. I was stupid, hung out with the wrong
people, and got into trouble…I messed it up. I
couldn’t stay right.” Jamal spent months couch
surfing or sleeping wherever he could – his body
paid the price. Forced in and out of hospitals and
desperately trying to regain his health, Jamal realized he needed to bring his life under control. “I
stopped hanging out with the people I had been,
really tried to fix my life. I figured better late than
never. Then I got a home through SAVE, everything
changed.” SAVE gave Jamal another lease on life.
“I met Lisa [Elmer, a SAVE Housing Specialist], she
changed my life.”
THE NEXT GENERATION. SAVE will evolve along with the disease, ever
triving to better serve our clients and prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS
N
ow Jamal’s health has stabilized. He returned to school and earned his high school
diploma. “I was able to get back to school ‘cause I had a place of my own, I could
choose the people I let into my life.” Jamal now plans to further his education and
become an IT specialist. “SAVE is the reason I can do anything, I couldn’t afford any
of this [housing or school] without them.” Yet SAVE is much more than just housing
support. “Lisa is always there for me, she’s the person I bounce ideas off of, she cares.
You never know about people, but I know Lisa cares and is there.”
J
amal’s story is difficult, the fact that someone so young will struggle with the complications, rigors, and setbacks that AIDS delivers is devastating. Sadly, we can’t
alter the past, but we can change the future. By providing a home to Jamal, we know
that we can help improve his health, prevent transmission, and allow him to live a life he
chooses, a life of hope and dignity. Housing is the change that so many are waiting for.
