Frannie Peabody Center is the largest community-based HIV/AIDS services organization
in Maine, providing prevention services for at-risk groups and direct services for people
living with HIV/AIDS.
Frannie Peabody Center is committed to preventing the spread of HIV infection in
Southern Maine, while providing compassionate care for those infected with and affected
by HIV/AIDS. We promote awareness and risk-reduction through programs that provide
prevention education, outreach, and anonymous HIV testing services. We also provide
programs that address the impact of the disease on the individual. These include our case
management, support services, and housing assistance programs.
Frannie Peabody Center was formed in 2002, following a merger between Portland’s The
AIDS Project and Peabody House, two organizations with long, progressive histories in
the fight against HIV/AIDS in Maine.
