Our Mission Is to provide education on the prevention of HIV/AIDS and comprehensive support services to those affected by the disease. Saint Louis Effort for AIDS, known in the community as "EFA", is the city's oldest AIDS Service Organization (ASO). Founded as a nonprofit organization in December 1985, programs, services and other ASO's evolved to address the enormous changes in medical treatment and testing for HIV/AIDS. In 1992, EFA's Client Services Department began providing case management services for individuals infected with HIV/AIDS, and in 1994, was funded as a Ryan White Title I grantee. Dining Out for Life (DOFL), EFA's annual fundraising event, was first presented in St. Louis in 1993. Today St. Louis' DOFL is part of international Dining Out for Life in 54 cities in the United States and Canada. Since 1997, EFA's Prevention Department has been providing free testing/screenings for HIV and other STD's
