Supporting the goals and ideals of National Women and Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Day.
HRES 1109 is a symbolic resolution supporting National Women and Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Day, observed annually on March 10. It recognizes the disproportionate impact of HIV/AIDS on women and girls in the U.S., particularly women of color who face higher infection rates and barriers to care. The resolution calls for increased investment in prevention, treatment, and education programs to reduce new infections and address health disparities, while emphasizing the need for culturally responsive services and comprehensive sexual health education. It does not create new laws or funding but expresses congressional support for ongoing efforts to end the HIV epidemic among women and girls.
