Allion Healthcare, Inc. (NASDAQ: ALLI), today announced that it has entered into a partnership with Being Alive San Diego to launch a Community Learning Center in San Diego, California. The build-out of the new center begins this week with an anticipated opening date of October 1, 2009.

The Being Alive Community Learning Center will share space with Allion’s Priority/MOMS Pharmacy in the heart of the Hillcrest area of San Diego. This newly expanded location allows Allion Healthcare to work more closely with people living with HIV/AIDS to provide specialty pharmacy care as well as provide a venue for vital educational and community resources.

“Partnering with a leading HIV/AIDS organization such as Being Alive San Diego, will provide us with the opportunity to further extend our services throughout San Diego County and expand our ability to improve clinical outcomes for the over 6,000 patients who access services at Being Alive”, said Mike Moran, Allion Healthcare’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Based on the success of our collaborations with Under One Roof in San Francisco and Lifelong AIDS Alliance in Seattle, we are excited about this third alliance and look forward to another successful partnership.”

“Being Alive San Diego was one of the first AIDS Service Organizations to provide vital support and services to people living with HIV/AIDS in San Diego,” said Being Alive San Diego’s Executive Director, Shannon Wagner. “This Community Learning Center gives us and other local AIDS Service Organizations an innovative way to expand access to services people living with HIV/AIDS need.”
