Allion Healthcare, Inc. (NASDAQ: ALLI), today announced that it has
entered into a partnership with Under One Roof to launch a Community
Resource Center in San Francisco. The build-out of the new center begins
this week with an anticipated opening date of January 1, 2009.
This Community Resource Center will share space with Allion’s MOMS
Pharmacy at its newest location in San Francisco. This new location
allows Allion Healthcare to work closer with people living with HIV/AIDS
to provide specialty pharmacy care as well as educational and community
resources.
"Partnering with a leading HIV/AIDS organization such as Under One Roof
will allow us an opportunity to extend our services through the 28 AIDS
Service Organizations who reach over 10,000 patients in the San
Francisco area,” said Mike Moran, Allion Healthcare’s Chairman,
President and Chief Executive Officer. "We are excited about our second
alliance with a leading advocate for patients living with HIV/AIDS and
look forward to expanding our services in the San Francisco communities
where they are most needed.”
"For almost 20 years, Under One Roof has sought out ways to support
people living with HIV/AIDS,” said Under One Roof’s Board Chair, Gregory
Wick. "The Community Resource Center gives us another, original way to
fulfill that same mission.”
