About this organization
Mission
DOORWAYS maintains a continuum of housing services designed to meet the ever-changing needs of people living with HIV/AIDS in the St. Louis area, ensuring that none face homelessness and all may live with optimum health. This goal is driven by DOORWAYS' conviction that secure housing is the foundation for the most efficient, cost-effective and compassionate approach to the treatment, management and prevention of HIV/AIDS. Its special concern is for the very poor and their dependent children, those whose needs cannot be fully met by public assistance or by friends and families. DOORWAYS serves those affected by AIDS and HIV-related illnesses, regardless of religion, race, age, gender, sexual orientation, or physical or mental disability. Since its founding in 1988, DOORWAYS has served more than 11,000 households and currently assists more than 600 adults and 300 children each month through its housing programs.
