Welcome to the Panhandle AIDS Support Organization

The Panhandle AIDS Support Organization, Inc. (PASO) is a not-for-profit support agency. PASO opened its doors in April of 1988 offering education to the general public and emotional support to those persons infected with HIV disease in the 26 counties of the Texas Panhandle.

Today PASO is a full service community based organization with a case management system which provides referrals to doctors, dentists and optometrists, therapeutic counseling, transportation, respite care, and support groups. We also offer educational programs tailored to the needs of civic groups, churches, hospitals, businesses and the general public.

Funding for PASO comes from state and federal grant funds, private foundations and local contributions.
