Well, I don't know. I thought we already had strategies in place . Not that all of them work or ever would.

It's the same Ole story, more money going for nothing. I have been positive for over 25 yeas, and the longer I am a survivor the more is taken away.. It all looks good in print!!!!!

What some people do not realize is you MUST have the structure in place and pay the rents and salaries of these people so that we CAN get the monies and programs out their to the people who need it. Without that what do you have??? Who passes it out and where? Do I stand on the corner and give it to any Joe or Sally that says "ha I need money and I am Poz" Structure is needed.

Again, another gov't agency eating up HIV monies. Why does the government need another agency to oversee the implementation of a fictional (at this time) AIDS Strategy? 1.4 million for staff, expenses and regional communications?

Why not give that money to the South, where they lack resources and are being hit harder than other areas of the US? Wait I know! That would make sense...
