As we continue to celebrate Pride Month, TSF wants to encourage PLWH to fully understand how important it is this year to getting informed and mobilized during this election cycle. Every vote will count and so does every voice!

Nationally we have HIV funding cuts being pursued and policies being introduced to deny healthcare access as well as other programs that could impact our community.

Locally we are stiving to educate legislators on the lack of state allotments for prevention education and the need to address our outdated and not fact-based HIV criminalization statue. All of this will require a more forceful response and people power to energize a movement to make any change.

This August, the Arkansas HIV Planning Group is proposing a statewide convening here in Little Rock. Usually, this event holds space for a PLW caucus type section and would be ideal for such a meet up.

However. prior to that session, The Strilite Foundation would like to support some courageous conversations as to what's happening around the state and in your communities. These sessions can be either virtual or in-person depending on what's agreed too.

If you are seriously interested, please reach out to [email protected]. If we don't speak up, someone else will speak for you!

Nearly 450 hospitals in 44 states are at high risk of closing or cutting services. They serve six million patients, employing 300,000 care workers. Currently, Arkansas is already experiencing hospital and unit closures due to reimbursement issues and funding levels.

This situation and scenario are only gotten worse if there's no call to action to our lawmakers who Last year approved more than $1 trillion in cuts to Medicaid, public health & rural hospitals, delaying implementation until later this year.

We must reach out to our lawmakers and let them know that 45 years of HIV cannot be rolled back with these poor choices being imposed on the American people.

Call you representative's office and let him or her know that this is unacceptable and we demand change! Reach out to [email protected] for more info.

The national week of action is set for June 1–7, 2026. Local groups such as The Strilite Foundation and advocates will organize and participate in town halls, panel discussions, forums, demonstrations, marches, rallies, candlelight vigils, inter-faith services, AIDS Memorial Quilt displays and social media campaigns in rural towns and urban neighborhoods nationwide.

Medical research, affordable access to healthcare, vaccines, and treatment, and strong public health systems are fundamental to quality of life, economic stability, workforce strength and national security.

Budget cuts to Medicaid, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are threats to the health of all Americans.

The cuts passed by Congress last year will not go into effect until after this fall’s election, when they will also cause harm local economies and the loss of more than one million jobs and billions in tax revenue.

Did you know that last year, lawmakers passed over $1 trillion in health funding cuts as part of H.R. 1. The most severe human and economic consequences of these cuts will not take effect until later this year, which is why we need to make our voices heard now.

The Strilite Foundation has signed on as a supporter of the Seven Days in June: HEALTH IS PRIMARY which is a decentralized, nonpartisan, grassroots-driven campaign from June 1-7, 2026.

We believe that we must join the fight to expose and push back against these cuts and their devastating impact on our healthcare infrastructure. Health cuts kill, and communities across America – from rural towns to large cities – are already paying the price.

There are over 50 organizations partnering for Seven Days in June – including UNITE HERE, AFL-CIO, SEIU, NMAC and many others who represent millions of Americans who demand answers.

These people-powered organizations are now joined by actor and longtime healthcare advocate Noah Wyle. The son of a registered nurse and a fierce advocate for frontline workers, Wyle is amplifying our call to action: Health is not partisan. HEALTH IS PRIMARY.

We at TSF believe that healthcare is not be seen as an entitlement but a right that everyone must have access to! Share your thoughts with us at [email protected] Do it today!! See less
