HIV research is at risk, and the people who depend on it can’t afford further delays.

TAG stands with HIV advocates calling on Congress to urge the Department of Health and Human Services to release overdue NIH Notices of Funding Opportunities for HIV research. Without these notices, researchers cannot submit grant proposals, putting clinical trials, critical research infrastructure, and decades of scientific progress at risk.

Take action today: Contact your two Senators and House Representative and demand the immediate release of overdue HIV research funding notices: https://actionnetwork.org/letters/action-alert-urge-congress-to-demand-release-overdue-hiv-research-nofos

Share this alert with your networks. Protecting HIV research means protecting the people, communities, and scientific advances that depend on it.
