The HIV Prevention Planning Council (HPPC) is the group that guides HIV prevention in San Francisco, along with the San Francisco Department of Public Health (DPH). Members of the HPPC are from local communities and government. They reflect San Francisco's diverse population. The HPPC is responsible for deciding which populations are in greatest need of HIV prevention services, as well as deciding what are the best ways to meet those needs. The DPH, in turn, is responsible for funding programs and services that match the HPPC's decisions.
