The San Antonio AIDS Foundation (SAAF) is the first community-based organization created in response to the epidemic of HIV/AIDS in San Antonio. SAAF was founded in 1986 as a volunteer-run hospice by Robert Edwards, known as Papa Bear. In 1991, SAAF moved to its present facility on 818 E. Grayson Street, a former nursing home. SAAF has provided residential nursing/hospice services for almost 30 years to well over 1,500 unduplicated individuals with HIV/AIDS. SAAF’s mission is to prevent the spread of HIV and provide compassionate, comprehensive services to individuals affected by HIV/AIDS. Its vision is a community free of HIV.
