The Project of the Quad Cities is a nonprofit organization founded in 1986 that operates in the civic and social services space, focusing on HIV, STI, and AIDS support. Based in Moline, Illinois, it provides a spectrum of services intended to assist people living with HIV/STI/AIDS, as well as their families and friends, across Iowa and Illinois, with an emphasis on prevention, education, and advocacy for equitable health care access. The organization aims to reduce stigma associated with HIV/STI/AIDS by delivering culturally competent educational messaging and collaborating with federal, state, and community partners to expand its reach and impact. Its mission centers on action against HIV/STI/AIDS, and it seeks to empower individuals it serves while promoting a future where affected and at-risk populations receive the support they need to thrive. In recent developments, TPQC appointed a community impact officer in 2021, reflecting ongoing leadership changes and organizational adaptation. The charity operates with a small on-site presence and serves as a bridge between healthcare services and communities in need within its regional footprint.
