Under the new policy, the CDC is redirecting HIV prevention funds to state health agencies. While the agency frames this as a way to streamline public health infrastructure, many nonprofits that previously received direct federal support fear they will lose their ability to serve high-risk communities effectively.
Advocates worry that state bureaucracies may not prioritize the same outreach programs, potentially stalling progress in the fight against HIV. The shift marks a significant change in how federal health dollars are distributed and managed at the local level.
