Our Ryan White Part D program does so much good, serving well over 800 women, babies, and kids per year in our area alone. Thanks to this funding, a few years ago when I was down and out I was still able to stay afloat. I don't use Ryan White anymore because it helped strengthen me when I needed it and now I can stand on my own. But if I had not had this program in the past, I don't know if I would have been able to make it through. Some people like me just need a stepping stone to get them ahead so that they don't just give up because it can be really hard sometimes. Don't take this program away from us please.

#SaveRyanWhitePartD Flash Blog: “No HIV+ Women & Children Left Behind,” is a virtual event that will occur on 4/10/2014 to protest the proposed elimination of Ryan White Part D (healthcare/services for HIV+ women, youth, & families). Individuals from around the globe will participate in a peaceful Flash Blog protest, submitting over one hundred blog posts: poems, pictures, videos, and stories in support of the communities that stand to lose the most if this vital funding is cut.
