This bill, introduced in 2010, sought to reduce the impact of HIV/AIDS within the African American community by providing federal grants to public health agencies and faith-based organizations. These funds would have supported expanded testing, prevention education, and medical treatment, as well as mental health and substance abuse services for at-risk groups and homeless youth. Additionally, the legislation aimed to increase medical research into the factors driving higher infection rates and called for a national media campaign to encourage regular testing.
