Ryan White CARE Act Part D: Matches and Gaps in Political Commitment and Local Implementation
Product Description:
This paper demonstrates the opportunities for and challenges of the Ryan White Comprehensive AIDS Resources Emergency (CARE) Act-Part D to implementing its mandate for comprehensive family-centered systems of care for women, infants, children and youth with HIV/AIDS. Part D legislation should promote practices addressing families with models for basic security; judiciously embrace those universal public health policies aiming to improve children?s overall welfare; and consistently repudiate those policies infringing on HIV-infected women?s human rights, or ignoring their children?s basic needs. The proposed revisions to Part D implementation may renew its political commitment to serving the needs of HIV-affected families.
