Today we celebrate the legacy of Ryan White, and the groundbreaking law named in his honor. For 35 years, the Ryan White CARE Act has provided life-saving care, medication, and support to people living with HIV.
This anniversary is more than a date on the calendar - it is a reminder that health care is a human right, and Ryan's story continues to inspire a future rooted in compassion, equity, and dignity for all.
Let's keep fighting to protect and strengthen this vital program!
