CAP Locations To Reopen After Security Concerns

On Tuesday, August 20th, Cascade AIDS Project (CAP) received a threatening phone call from a former employee. Out of an abundance of caution, we immediately closed all CAP locations. Portland Police were engaged, and it has been determined there is no current threat to safety. To allow our staff time to regroup, CAP's Davis Street location will reopen to the public on Monday, August 26th. All other CAP locations, including Our House, SW Washington, and both Prism Health locations, will resume normal operations on Thursday, August 22nd. Thank you for your understanding and continued support.


About Cascade AIDS Project

CAP is a non-profit organization that was founded in 1985 as a grassroots response to the AIDS crisis. As the oldest and largest community-based HIV services provider in Oregon and southwest Washington, we seek to support and empower all people with or affected by HIV, reduce stigma, and provide the LGBTQ+ community with compassionate healthcare. We do so by helping to ensure the health and well-being of our program participants each year through health, housing, and other social services. When the need for affordable, accessible, and culturally affirming primary care services was identified as a community need, we responded by opening Prism Health in 2017.  More information can be found at www.capnw.org.
