About Sunburst Projects

Sunburst Projects is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with offices located in Sacramento, California that serves individuals from the greater Sacramento region. Sunburst provides a variety of social and mental health services to individuals and families impacted by HIV/AIDS. Our mission is to promote health, wellness, and social justice through services that strengthen and empower individuals, families and communities to ensure those living with HIV/AIDS reach their highest potential. Sunburst Projects initially specialized in serving children and families impacted by HIV/AIDS. In 2020 we expanded to serve all individuals who are living with or affected by HIV/AIDS including men, women, families, youth and the Sacramento HIV community as a whole. We also opened our first full service mental health clinic. Today, we serve 350 individuals in Northern California. Our programs include medical case management, mental health services, social support services, child care assistance, HIV/AIDS education and prevention, enrollment in ADAP (AIDS Drug Assistance Program), support groups, and more. Our work is based on a set of core values that inform how we carry out our day-to-day activities: -We focus on the quality of life and not the disease itself, and strive to ensure that all people living with HIV/AIDS are not subject to discrimination. -We believe that as an agency, we are all responsible for the health and emotional wellbeing of our clients, yet the issue is not ours alone; governments, communities and society as a whole must also be held accountable. -We practice compassionate listening and non-judgmental communication. -We strive to provide services delivered with flexibility, personalized attention and cultural sensitivity. -We strive to promote self-sufficiency and empowerment.
