SAN MATEO COUNTY   When the legislature officially recognized San Mateo County in 1857, they named Redwood City as the capitol. The wealthy of San Francisco opened summer homes on the Peninsula. In the early days it was a full days trip to get from San Francisco to those homes. First the railroad and later improved roads and cars opened up the possibilities and the inhabitants of San Francisco moved permanently into San Mateo County. The 1906 earthquake displaced many people in San Francisco. After relocating in San Mateo County, many never moved back into San Francisco. World War I brought industrial growth to the areas around South San Francisco and with it an influx of residents. No longer did residents have to travel to work in San Francisco, they were employed in masses on the peninsula.

Program Description:
This program is the primary provider of HIV prevention and education in San Mateo County. The focus of its work is to reach persons in the county who are most at risk for HIV - men who have sex with men, injection drug users and their sexual partners. These persons are reached and supported in their attempts at risk reduction through point of risk street interventions, group presentations and prevention case management. This program is also the primary provider of HIV antibody testing through its mobile unit and testing on demand. Three (3) contract agencies collaborate with the AIDS Program to accomplish the above tasks. In addition, HIV prevention is also provided to schools through the Positive Prevention Plus Program, which has a cadre of youth volunteers who work in high schools and middle schools, as well as do outreach in areas where youth hang out. Education and in-service training for agencies are also provided upon request. For persons already infected with HIV, the San Mateo County AIDS Program is the primary provider of early intervention and clients services.
