Consumer Survey: Creating New Ryan White Comprehensive Care and Treatment Legislation

We need to hear from you!  NAPWA and the Campaign to End AIDS are facilitating a national dialogue on what the next Ryan White Legislation should look like.  We are looking for input from people who receive HIV/AIDS services to get their recommendations and suggestions as to what services look like.  We are asking that you take a couple of minutes and fill out this online survey.  All responses are anonymous. (If you have filled out a paper copy of this survey, you do not need to fill it out again)
