The AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP) within the California

increase the duration and quality of life.
Individuals are eligible for ADAP if they:
- are a resident of California;
- are HIV infected;
- are 18 years of age or older;
- have an adjusted gross income below $50,000 per
year;
- have a valid prescription from a licensed California
physician; and

or do not qualify for no-cost Medi-Cal.
