David's House Compassion, an AIDS service agency in Toledo, Ohio, plagued with financial problems since losing a $150,000 grant in 2004, has been taken over by the AIDS Resource Center Ohio, reports The [Toledo] Blade. DHC's operations, which include case management, financial assistance, nutrition services, and medical assistance, are now available through ARC's downtown Toledo office. ARC will continue to offer housing and utilities assistance.
"In a different environment we would have been able to raise enough money to have a completely local organization, but that's not the environment we live in," David Arnold, DHC's board president, told The Blade. "This is the best opportunity for our clients to have a stable home." (The Advocate)
