The AIDS Foundation of Chicago has debuted its first issue brief to kick off a new series covering statewide issues related to HIV prevention, education and care in Illinois.
The brief, titled "The Illinois state budget impasse and HIV services: A case of governmental dysfunction," illuminates Illinois' current fiscal landscape and examines the state’s recent descent into its budgetary crisis. Ultimately, the brief identifies the state budget crisis as the roadblock preventing Illinoisans from life-saving HIV-specific healthcare and services.
