About Us.

Later it was transformed into an agency.
The agency started receiving World Bank assistance in the year 2006 through HIV Program Development Project (HPDP).
Subsequently, 11 LACA were formed to help the SACA achieve its goal. So also technical staff, junior staff such as drivers, cleaners, and securities were employed. Other management staff were posted from various ministries.

From the Project Manager.
Dear Community Members,
I am honored and deeply committed to addressing one of the most pressing public health challenges of our time as the Project Manager of the Gombe State Agency for the Control of HIV/AIDS. Today, I want to share a message of hope, resilience, and unwavering dedication to our mission of HIV prevention and control.
HIV/AIDS continues to affect countless lives worldwide, and its impact goes beyond the individuals living with the virus. It affects families, communities, and societies as a whole. But let us be clear: we are not defined by this virus; we are defined by our collective response to it.
Our agency’s mission is clear: to prevent new HIV infections and improve the quality of life for those living with HIV in Gombe State. To achieve this mission, we pledge to uphold the following principles:
- Empowering Education and Awareness: Knowledge is the foundation of prevention. We will empower individuals with accurate, up-to-date information about HIV/AIDS. We will strive to combat stigma and discrimination, ensuring that every person affected by HIV in Gombe State feels valued and supported.
- Accessible and Inclusive Services: We are committed to providing equitable access to comprehensive HIV prevention, testing, treatment, and care services in Gombe State. No one should be left behind in our efforts, and we will work tirelessly to remove barriers that prevent access to essential healthcare.
- Community Partnership: HIV prevention is a collaborative endeavor. We will strengthen our bonds with community organizations, healthcare providers, advocacy groups, and governmental agencies within Gombe State. Together, we can achieve more than we ever could alone.
- Innovation and Research: The fight against HIV/AIDS demands continuous innovation. We will invest in research, exploring new strategies, technologies, and treatments tailored to the unique needs of Gombe State. By embracing the latest advancements, we can adapt and refine our approach to better serve our community.

Our commitment to HIV prevention and control in Gombe State is unwavering. Together, we can make significant strides towards a state where HIV is no longer a threat. It is not just a vision; it is our duty to protect the health and well-being of all members of our community in Gombe State.
I invite each and every one of you in Gombe State to join us in this noble endeavor. Whether you are an advocate, a healthcare professional, someone living with HIV, or a concerned citizen, your involvement matters. Together, we can create a future where HIV/AIDS is but a memory.
Thank you for your trust and support.
