HIV/AIDS Services
The Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (a service of the Human Resources & Services Administration) helps low-income people with HIV receive medical care, medications, and support services so they continue their care. Use the Program Medical Provider tool (findhivcare.hrsa.gov) to locate available care and services in Westchester County; many local health clinics participate.
