Sunshine HouseKali Shiva AIDS Services has been working with people living with HIV/AIDS in Winnipeg since 1987. Sunshine House began operations in 1999 after broad consultation between affected communities, and national and local agencies active in the poly drug using community .A core of roughly 50 'regular' clients has emerged from the programs in place over the history of Kali Shiva at Sunshine House. This core of individuals is distinguished from the 4000/year 'occasional' users of service by their long-term participation in programs and use of practical services offered. The core of individuals has consistently followed us through two re-locations, including to our permanent facility at 646 Logan Avenue.Sunshine House has successfully engaged the most marginalized individuals in the Winnipeg poly drug using community by being a place where everyone is welcome, without judgement. A 'Harm Reduction' approach to our work has built a strong connection with people who often reject community services.
