24 GHP Healthcare and Pharmaceutical Awards 2024 Hope on T.T.a.P.P (HoT) is an awardwinning NPO that is devoted to eradicating the stigma surrounding HIV and hepatitis C. Awarded with its esteemed title in our Healthcare and Pharmaceutical Awards 2024, HoT has added yet another accolade to its roster. Here we profile the organization and shine a spotlight on its contributions to humankind as it continues to positively impact lives everywhere. The name Hope on T.T.a.P.P stands for Testing, Treatment and Peerled Prevention, and it is HoT’s mission to deliver the most outstanding support via its mobilized rapid point-of-care program. With its expertise and dedication, HoT responds to the 2,000 new hepatitis C and 125+ new HIV cases each year in Utah alone. But spreading the word on how we can all help is also part of its overall mission. The organization’s commitment to normalizing the conversation surrounding drug user health, to implementing sexual health into primary care, and to ending the stigma surrounding hepatitis C and HIV propel it forward in its work with individuals and communities. HoT’s small, close-knit team of family-like team members believe in supporting as many people as possible with their support and understanding, to build a better world for us all. Keeping compassionate people close to its core, HoT’s internal culture reflects its mission. Its team aren’t people of high-status corporate backgrounds, they are people who have experienced similar things to their clients, making them the perfect fit for open and relatable conversations with those who are suffering from specific troubles. Their knowledge and experience with subjects such as living on the streets allows them to construct trust-filled relationships with people who are experiencing, or have experienced, the same thing. For the last 5 years, HoT has been working hard to improve and eradicate the stigma surrounding HIV and hepatitis. With a 340B pharmacy status and partnership with an online PrEP provider, HoT has been altering lives across its state with PrEP via a Telehealth model. The organization has built its reputation from scratch and formed partnerships to ensure that its clients receive the help they need. Furthermore, many members of the team at HoT come from a place of similar lived experiences and all come from a place of positive action. Therefore, supporting people with harm reduction and equal access to healthcare resources that can help, HoT’s work is an invaluable service for all of our communities – whether in Utah or anywhere else in the world, we can each work towards helping others, implementing harm reduction, and eradicating the stigma. Whether a person is directly impacted by HIV or hepatitis, or they’re in contact with someone who is, HoT is a hub for finding the best way forward for the individual diagnosed – while also educating the world around them. The organization’s mobile harm reduction services are there for vulnerable and medically under-served communities across Utah, and its work directly and positively impacts them without adding fuel to the fire of the stigma which surrounds drug use, sex work, those coming out of incarceration, LGBTQIA+ individuals, people of color, and those in rural counties who are worried about seeking help for themselves. Providing access to wound care and cost-free emergency contraceptives, STI education and barrier-free pathways to accessing life-saving medication or treatments, HoT gives individuals all they need to live better quality lives even if they have been affected by HIV, hepatitis, sexual health issues, drug use, and more. The organization’s unwavering support also means that individuals can have access to transportation to medical appointments, patient advocacy and support, medication delivery, and around-the-clock crisis intervention.
