Last month, community AIDS organizations learned of nearly half a million dollars in federal cuts and are now bracing themselves for this summer, when Medicaid cuts are to be finalized. Talk of outreach among the walk's 4,000 attendees was urgent and heated.

"This is what we have to do," said Enos. Kansas City Star 04.17.05; Ron Knox  This article was provided by U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
