SunServe is proud to announce the opening of their Case Management department at the 2312 Wilton Drive Wilton Manors, FL 33305 location (954) 764-5150. They will begin by offering Intensive Housing Case Management services.  SunServe is a model 501(c)(3) nonprofit social service agency serving the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Questioning (LGBTQ) community in South Florida. We provide high quality, compassionate, and progressive care for all, including those in financial need, minorities, youth, seniors, families, and those with life-challenging physical or emotional conditions. We also perform numerous education and outreach projects.

The goals of SunServe’s HOPWA program will be to develop a long term relationship with clients in order to develop trust and an open dialog regarding the barriers that arise to long term and stable housing for PLWH/A. The Director of Case Management is Gary S. Hensley who has worked in the HIV/AIDS field since the early 90’s. He became involved when three very close friends passed away from AIDS related illnesses. He has served on the HIV/AIDS Planning Council, The Board of Directors of Friends Alliance & the PWA Coalition. He was honored to receive both the Life Preserver Award & Footsteps in the Sand Outstanding Leadership Award in 2008. His goal in life is to be remembered as someone who strived to help as many people as possible to improve their quality of life. Also joining us is Tiffany Arieagus- Case Manager, Advocate and Community Liaison. She has worked in the HIV/AIDS Arena for about 13 years.  She just joined the wonderful staff at Sun Serve after being the Lead Housing Specialist for the TBRV Program at Broward House for the past 4 years. She was 2005 Stars of the Rainbow Honoree for her contributions to our community.  She is a member of the Community Advocacy Board and the Consumer Medical Board for the Florida State Health Department. She is a tireless fundraiser and promoter of Cultural Competency for her clients and her community.  She loves being involved and giving back to her community.  Joe Leonardo, case manager for the housing program serving the HIV/AIDS population at SunServe in Wilton Manors.  He first started working with the HIV/AIDS population as a buddy volunteer in the Buddy Program in Providence, RI.  He then accepted the position as the Buddy Program Coordinator and soon moved into case management.  He then moved on to work with various populations in the social services field for the next several years.  He is pleased to be back working with the HIV/AIDS population at SunServe. 

You are invited to be a part of the mission and outreach as the agency evolves and grows. Information about volunteering and financial support can be found at WWW.SunServe.org.
