AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF) is a Los Angeles-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that provides HIV/AIDS prevention, treatment, and advocacy services, in addition to humanitarian aid. As of 2025, AHF operates about 400 clinics, 69 outpatient healthcare centers, 62 pharmacies, and 22 Out of the Closet thriftRead more
stores across 16 U.S. states, Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico, and 49 countries, with over 5,000 employees, and provides care to more than 2.5 million patients. The organization's aim is to end the AIDS epidemic by ensuring access to quality healthcare, including HIV and STD testing, prescription of medications like Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP), and referrals to specialty pharmacies. AHF is a participant in and supporter of the 340B Drug Pricing Program, and the largest provider of PrEP in the United States, though its founder Michael Weinstein has received criticism for his initial opposition to the drug in the early 2010s. AHF operates the Out of the Closet thrift store chain to help fund its services.
Since 2012, AHF has become highly active in sponsoring and exclusively financing multiple high-profile ballot initiatives in two states, starting with a successful Los Angeles County initiative to require condoms in adult films (2012 Los Angeles Measure B), and then a similar statewide initiative which failed (2016 California Proposition 60). AHF ran two measures seeking to cap prescription drug prices (California Proposition 61 (2016) and Ohio Issue 2 (2017)), both of which failed. The organization has also pursued legal action against pharmaceutical companies and pharmacy benefit managers to reduce drug prices.
In 2017, AHF created a new organization named the Healthy Housing Foundation, which focuses on housing for homeless and low-income individuals. AHF also shifted its political advocacy focus to attempting to block certain housing construction through 2017 Los Angeles Measure S and lawsuits against several projects, as well as three statewide ballot initiatives seeking to allow for the expansion of rent control in California (2018 California Proposition 10, 2020 California Proposition 21, and 2024 California Proposition 33); all of which failed at the polls.
