2024 Impact Report
Dear DAP Health community:
For over 40 years, DAP Health has stood as a beacon of compassion, commitment, and innovation in health care access. As we present our 2024 Impact Report, I am proud and thrilled to welcome you to this reflection on a year of progress, resilience, and meaningful change.
Our journey has always been guided by the communities we serve, and 2024 was no exception. With an unwavering focus on protecting and expanding access to quality care, we continued our mission to provide for the most vulnerable throughout Southern California.
Last year, we proudly continued to integrate the Borrego Health system into the DAP Health brand — welcoming 850 dedicated employees, 23 clinics, and over 70,000 additional patients. This transformative milestone has deepened our ability to deliver lifechanging care to those who need it most.
As you explore the pages of this report, you will see the impact of our collective efforts — not just in numbers, but in the real lives touched by our commitment to health equity. From addressing the social drivers of health to enhancing outcomes through patient-centered initiatives, we are redefining what it means to provide holistic, inclusive health care.
Transparency remains a core value at DAP Health, and we are committed to open communication about our operational and financial stewardship. I encourage you to visit DAPHealth.org to review a detailed financial overview of the past few years, reinforcing our dedication to accountability and trust within our community.
None of this would be possible without you — our employees, volunteers, donors, community partners, elected officials, and, most importantly, our patients. Your unwavering support fuels our mission and inspires us to continue breaking down barriers to care.
Thank you for being an integral part of DAP Health. Together, we are building a healthier, stronger, and more inclusive future.
In gratitude and partnership,
David Brinkman, MBA CEO, DAP Health
2024 Impact Report –Quality
In 2024, DAP Health continued to deliver high-quality care across its clinics, achieving significant progress in clinical performance. We successfully met nine out of 18 Uniform Data System (UDS) clinical quality measures and 17 out of 32 Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS) measures.
In recognition of our efforts to expand patient access, we were proud to receive the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) Community Health Quality Recognition (CHQR) Badge for Access Enhancer.
Throughout the year, DAP Health conducted the following screenings to support early detection and prevention:
2,276 breast cancer screenings
4,636 colorectal cancer screenings
5,155 cervical cancer screenings
11,954 HIV screenings
18,247 tobacco screenings
18,383 depression screenings
Quality in health care is critical, as it directly influences patient outcomes, safety, and overall system efficiency. High-quality care is defined by being effective, safe, patient-centered, timely, equitable, integrated, and efficient.
Our Quality team is committed to these principles, working collaboratively across departments to drive meaningful improvements. We reinforce a culture of continuous improvement by visiting clinics twice monthly to review clinical quality measure scores and to enhance workflows.
Looking ahead to 2025, our quality initiatives will focus on transforming DAP Health into a PatientCentered Medical Home (PCMH), advancing our Population Health strategies, attaining Lean Six Sigma certification for the Quality team, and expanding education and training on quality improvement tools for clinic staff.

40 Years of Compassionate, Culturally Competent Care
DAP Health marked four decades of community service in 2024, and there was so much to celebrate as lessons learned continue to pave the way toward the future.
Throughout 2024, the year of its 40th anniversary, DAP Health reflected on its origins, challenges, and progress. Founded in 1984 as Desert AIDS Project during the international health crisis, the nonprofit emerged as a vital source of support in the Coachella Valley when many turned away from those affected by the disease.
Early Days: A Response to Crisis
In the early 1980s, HIV/AIDS was a mysterious and deadly epidemic primarily affecting gay and bisexual men. Amid widespread fear and stigma, Palm Springs locals George Sonsel, Donald Beck, RN Kathleen McCauley, Ron Christenson, Dr. Bruce Lloyd, and others founded the Community Counseling & Consultation Center Inc., which later became D.A.P.
During the crisis, the community was divided, and compassion was scarce. Many people with HIV/AIDS were ostracized, even by their families. Kevin Bass, now DAP Health’s board of directors co-vice chair, recalls seeing coworkers wearing long-sleeved shirts in summer to hide Kaposi’s sarcoma lesions. Hospitals isolated AIDS patients, and families often disowned their sick relatives.
Despite limited medical knowledge and the lack of treatments, D.A.P. focused on holistic care — offering nutrition support, emotional counseling, and dignity to those affected.
Building Support and Overcoming Stigma
D.A.P. initially struggled against discrimination. Many locals feared being associated with AIDS, and businesses worried about damaging Palm Springs’ reputation. Even fundraising was difficult, with some donors rejecting their appeals.
A turning point came in the late 1980s when Riverside County Supervisor Patricia “Corky” Larson lent her name to D.A.P.’s cause, providing credibility. In 1988, the nonprofit hosted its first major fundraiser, the Ace AIDS Tennis Tournament, followed by its first AIDS Walk in 1989. These events drew high-profile supporters, including actor Kirk Douglas and former President Gerald Ford.
Steve Chase, a world-renowned interior designer and D.A.P. board member, played a crucial role in expanding fundraising efforts. His events raised millions, and after his death in 1994, the annual Steve Chase Humanitarian Awards continued his legacy, celebrating their 30th anniversary in 2024.
Expanding Medical Care and Services
By the early 1990s, medical advancements led to better treatments, including protease inhibitors in 1995, which significantly reduced AIDS-related deaths. D.A.P. continued expanding its services, opening a satellite office in Indio in 1994 and its main Palm Springs campus in 1999.
David Brinkman became CEO in 2006, leading efforts to broaden services beyond HIV care.
Landmark achievements under his leadership have included the creation of onsite affording housing complex Vista Sunrise (for people living with HIV) on the Sunrise campus in Palm Springs, the first adult HIV specialty

dental clinic in Riverside County, an official visit to the White House to celebrate the pioneering Get Tested Coachella Valley initiative, and the establishment of a sexual wellness clinic in Indio (eradicating barriers to accessing free STI testing and treatment in the Eastern Coachella Valley), and the 2024 unveiling of second onsite affordable housing complex Vista Sunrise II (for unhoused individuals and those suffering from chronic illness) on the Sunrise campus.
Adapting to Changing Health Needs
DAP Health has continued to evolve to meet broader community needs. During the COVID-19 pandemic and mpox outbreak, it provided testing and vaccinations. In 2023, it acquired Borrego Health, adding family medicine, pediatrics, OB-GYN, and more to its offerings.
Today, by operating 25 fixed locations, eight mobile units, and one Sprinter van throughout San Diego and Riverside counties, DAP Health continues its mission of health equity and compassionate care.
From its humble beginnings to becoming a model for inclusive health care, DAP Health remains a symbol of resilience, proving that a community united by compassion can overcome even the toughest challenges.

In a time when access to affirming care is under attack in many parts of the country, LGBTQ+ individuals are relocating to Southern California in search of the safety, dignity, and specialized care DAP Health provides. We’re proud to be a trusted destination for those seeking a better, more accepting place to live and thrive.

Revivals Thrift Stores: A Community Treasure Supporting DAP Health
In the heart of the Coachella Valley, Revivals Thrift Stores — which celebrate their 30th anniversary in 2025 — have become more than just a bargain shopping destination. They’re a lifeline for the community. Owned and operated by DAP Health, this award-winning chain of resale shops (perennially voted best in its class in many local competitions) has grown into a fan favorite, providing affordable fashion, home goods, and even brand-new furniture through its exclusive Mode line.
With four thriving locations — Palm Springs, Indio, Palm Desert, and Cathedral City — Revivals is not only a haven for bargain hunters but also a powerhouse of support, generating over $1 million annually for DAP Health’s critical programs and services.
Powered by 500 Dedicated Volunteers
What makes Revivals truly special is the people behind it. The stores are powered by an incredible team of some 500 volunteers, many of whom donate their time to sort, organize, and sell thousands of gently used and new items every day. Their dedication ensures that every dollar of profit at Revivals directly benefits DAP Health, an organization committed to providing comprehensive medical and mental health services to every member of the diverse communities it serves.
For many volunteers, working at Revivals is more than just a way to give back — it’s a rewarding experience that fosters friendships and a deep sense of purpose. Whether they are retirees looking to stay active or local residents passionate about community service, these volunteers are the heart and soul of Revivals, creating a warm and welcoming shopping environment.
A Haven in a Shaky Economy
In today’s uncertain economic climate, Revivals serves as a refuge for shoppers looking to stretch their budgets. With inflation impacting everything from groceries to rent, more people are turning to thrift stores as a smart and sustainable way to shop. At Revivals, customers can find high-quality clothing, furniture, and home décor at prices far below first-run retail.
From designer-label clothing at a fraction of the cost to one-of-a-kind vintage collectible and jewelry finds, Revivals offers an ever-changing inventory that keeps
customers coming back for more. And unlike traditional thrift stores, where selections can be hit or miss, Revivals takes pride in offering well-curated items that are stylish, functional, and in excellent condition.
Mode: New Furniture at Thrift Store Prices
For those who prefer brand-new furniture but still love a deal, Revivals offers Mode, its very own furniture brand. Mode brings modern, stylish furniture at affordable prices, allowing shoppers to furnish their homes without breaking the bank. Whether it’s a sleek new sofa, a chic dining table, or elegant bedroom sets, Mode provides contemporary pieces that reflect the latest design trends.
This unique blend of secondhand treasures and new, high-quality furniture makes Revivals a one-stop shopping destination for locals and visitors alike, including many a wise interior designer. Whether you’re decorating on a budget, hunting for a vintage gem, or simply looking for an ethical way to shop, Revivals offers something for everyone.
More Than a Store — A Community Legacy
Revivals Thrift Stores are more than just places to shop; they are a symbol of community strength, resilience, and generosity. By supporting Revivals, shoppers contribute to a larger mission — helping DAP Health provide vital medical care to those in need.
In a world where every dollar counts, Revivals proves that shopping with purpose can be both rewarding and life-changing. Whether you’re a bargain hunter, a volunteer, or a supporter of community health, Revivals welcomes you with open arms — and unbeatable deals.
Because where you shop matters
Housing is Health Care
Vista Sunrise II — fully occupied, with residents having begun to move in last June — is more than just a housing complex. It represents hope and opportunity for its inhabitants. With 30 units dedicated to rapid rehousing for individuals experiencing homelessness, and another 30 reserved for those with chronic illnesses and/or low incomes, the project provides much-needed stability. A property manager lives on site in the 61st unit, and a case manager maintains an office on the first floor.
Best of all, access to primary and behavioral health care — as well as to social services such as food and transportation assistance — are mere steps away on DAP Health’s Sunrise campus at the intersection of Vista Chino and North Sunrise Way.
A Stage Meant For Sharing
The event kicked off at 9:30 a.m. with a warm welcome from DAP Health CEO David Brinkman. He set the tone for the ceremony, highlighting the importance of housing as a fundamental aspect of health care, and expressing gratitude to all those involved in making Vista Sunrise II a reality. “Each time we get to provide someone with a set of keys to their new home we provide economic stability,” he said. “Access to affordable housing is one of the most cost-effective strategies for reducing poverty.”
Giving credit to architect Maria Song and her team at Interactive Design Corporation for the elegant and elevated complex designed in the international style with a slight art deco influence, Brinkman highlighted special features of Vista Sunrise II, such as its open courtyard, rooftop viewing deck, and various corridor balconies.
All 61 units, powered by solar panels, are also GreenPoint Rated. Each features Energy Star Rated appliances, including heat and air conditioners, and blinds. To top it all off, residents have access to the 1,600-squarefoot David Gluckstein Celebration Kitchen, named after major donor Hardy Bassington’s late husband. Doubling as a community room, it’s equipped with a demonstration kitchen where residents can participate in the preparation of healthy food, or gather for games and other social activities.
Speaking on behalf of Desert Care Network and Tenet Healthcare, Chief Strategy Officer Linda Evans said, “[We] are so proud to contribute $2.5 million to the Vista Sunrise II project. That’s because we know how important a stable home can be when a patient of ours
must recover from an accident or illness. We see the impact of homelessness every day in the trauma centers at our three hospitals — Desert Regional in Palm Springs, JFK Memorial in Indio, and Hi-Desert Medical Center in Joshua Tree.
“We are the first stop in providing lifesaving care when someone faces a trauma. But we also know that we cannot save lives alone. So much of the care we need as individuals happens outside the walls of our hospitals. Health care happens in places like Vista Sunrise II, which provides the security and comfort of a home and a host of wraparound health care services to help people recover and stay healthy. All of this is right here [at DAP Health].”
One Resident’s Story
One of the morning’s most poignant moments came when Sean Johnson, one of the first residents to move into Vista Sunrise II, took the stage. He spoke from the heart, his words resonating deeply with the audience.
“Every time I walk through the door of my beautiful studio apartment, furnished by [DAP Health’s own chain of resale stores] Revivals, I’m overwhelmed by a sense of gratitude,” he said, confiding he’s a bisexual man living with HIV who was once intermittently unhoused, both before and after becoming a patient and client at DAP Health. “To say that taking care of myself and living my best life without the comfort of a stable roof over my head was a challenge is an understatement… . I’m here as living proof that housing is health care, for which I will always be eternally grateful.”
To wrap up the proceedings, Coachella Valley Housing Coalition Executive Director and CEO Pedro S.G. Rodriguez followed with remarks about the significance of affordable housing in addressing both homelessness and chronic illness in the region.
By 10:00 a.m., the ceremony reached its peak with the actual cutting of the ribbon as Brinkman, Evans, Bassington, and Rodriguez jointly held the giant scissors.
As guests stayed behind to chat or tour the kitchen and grounds, the sense of accomplishment and optimism was palpable. The special event was not just a consecration of a new building but a celebration of one community’s commitment to ensuring that everyone, regardless of their circumstances, has access to safe housing and the best possible life they deserve.
Housing is health care, indeed.
