From the Frontlines: What We’re Fighting For This Month: March 2025

This month at RIPHI and Open Door Health, the stakes are high — but so is our determination.

From federal HIV research cuts making national headlines to bold new breakthroughs in prevention and legislative wins we’re fighting for at the State House, we’re at the center of some of the biggest public health conversations happening right now.

We’re speaking out in The Washington Post, advocating for healthier kids’ meals, and continuing to provide inclusive care looks like. We continue to stay ahead of the science that helps our community and our patients.  And through it all, we’re staying grounded in what matters most: social justice, evidence-based practices, and care that meets people where they are.
