Ryan White Program Expansion: Better Access to HIV Prevention Drugs (PrEP).

This Act allows organizations receiving Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program grants to use their program income for HIV prevention services. This means individuals at high risk of acquiring HIV can gain access to preventative medication (PrEP), lab tests, and counseling. The goal is to increase the availability of crucial prevention tools, enhancing public health and safety.
Key points
Organizations can now voluntarily use income generated from grants to provide PrEP drugs (pre-exposure prophylaxis) to individuals at risk of acquiring HIV.
Funding also covers related medical, laboratory, and counseling services, facilitating comprehensive preventative care.
