For decades, Vivent Health has been a leader in the fight against the HIV/AIDS epidemic, providing a range of health services to those in need. One such service is their food pantry, which offers essential support to many members of the LGBTQ+ community. During Pride Month, TMJ4 visited the pantry and spoke with individuals like Lavar McDaniel, who has been utilizing the pantry for about a year and highly praises the services provided.
The partnership between Vivent Health and the Hunger Task Force ensures that those living with HIV have access to nutritious food, recognizing its importance in overall healthcare. Kelli Hirt, director of food and nutrition services for Wisconsin at Vivent Health, emphasizes this link and highlights how it can lead to better health outcomes for individuals living with HIV.
For members of the LGBTQ community like Lavar, Vivent Health Services offer more than just food assistance – they provide a space to build relationships and connect with others who understand their experiences. Lavar speaks highly of this aspect of the services and encourages others to take advantage of these opportunities to meet new people and form meaningful connections.
