Over 40 people from Alliance walked in Central Park on Sunday, May 19, for the annual AIDS Walk New York—the largest single day fundraising and awareness event in the world for HIV/AIDS. We are proud to have participated in this event every year for over 30 years.
Over 20 Alliance staff and program participants woke up well before dawn and drove to Albany again on Monday, February 27, to lobby against proposed cuts that would remove 70,000 participants from New York State Health Homes. Joined by providers like Harlem United, Argus Health, Housing Works, and many others, we spoke with over a dozen state legislators and their staffs about the importance of the intensive care management model that Health Homes provides.

Alliance joined Housing Works, Callen-Lorde Community Health Centers and other community health providers in rallying outside the Gubernatorial debate Tuesday, October 25, in support of stopping the Cuomo Carve Out.
Team Alliance was in Albany Tuesday, September 20, joining Housing Works and other healthcare providers comprising the Save New York’s Safety Net (SNYSN) demanding a repeal of the “Cuomo carve-out” that would remove Medicaid pharmacy benefits from providers across New York.
Alliance was proud to join member organizations of Save NY’s Safety Net on Thursday, June 23 at the Stonewall Monument on Christopher street to demand that Governor Hochul repeal the Medicaid pharmacy benefit carve-out. The carve-out of the 340B Medicaid program was originally crafted by Governor Cuomo, and paused several times because of the immediate needs that COVID-19 presented. It will devastate community health clinics, HIV programs and their patients, so we’ve been demanding that Governor Hochul make good on her pledge to end the HIV/AIDS epidemic by 2024, which depends on repealing this carve-out.
Also at the rally, our coalition spoke about the need for Governor Hochul and NYS elected officials to:
Support TGNCNB anti-discrimination requirements in NY schools
Sign the Transgender and Non-binary Wellness and Equity Fund bill
Sign the Gender Inclusive Ballot Act
We were proud to join LGBTQ+ TGNCNB groups and health care providers in the name of action!
