POZ – News : White House Launches “Act Against AIDS” Campaign in U.S. .

In (what I would characterize as) a huge step forward for HIV/AIDS interventions, President Obama has invested $45 million dollars in the “Act Against AIDS” program which seeks to educate Americans about HIV/AIDS and hopefully inspire catharsis in communities affected. Not only has the White House committed to this initiative but they’ve targeted the campaign towards disadvantaged communities. This speaks to the platforms Obama cited during his campaign and shows his commitment to his promises. After years of being virtually ignored by the White House it’s the least they could do.
