Supporting the goals and ideals of "National Youth HIV/AIDS Awareness Day".
This resolution (HRES 331) is a non-binding House of Representatives statement supporting National Youth HIV/AIDS Awareness Day. It urges state/local governments and schools to recognize the day and promotes inclusive HIV education in curricula, including information on pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). The resolution calls for removing outdated HIV criminalization laws, expanding youth-friendly healthcare access (including confidential testing and treatment without parental consent), and supporting existing programs like the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program. It specifically highlights the disproportionate impact of HIV on young Black gay and bisexual men and advocates for reducing stigma to improve health outcomes for youth living with HIV.
