AIDS Service Organization
AIDS Response Seacoast is a non-profit community-based AIDS Service Organization dedicated to providing education, direct assistance and advocacy for persons and communities affected by HIV/AIDS. ARS has been providing services in the communities of Rockingham and Strafford counties in New Hampshire, as well as southern York County in Maine, since 1987. Our mission is to improve the lives of those living with HIV/AIDS and their families and to help prevent the spread of the virus through education and prevention programs. ARS is the only agency providing these services in Rockingham and Strafford counties. While great strides have been made in the treatment of this disease, its impact can still be felt daily as the incidence of new infections is, once again, on the rise. All of the services provided by ARS are free of charge.
