This first-of-its-kind report from CHLP highlights our work to manifest change and advance our mission throughout 2023. Our first year under the leadership of Executive Director S. Mandisa Moore-O’Neal was one of transformation and grounded reassessments during which CHLP:

Adopted a new mission, vision, and unapologetically abolitionist framework that has become a model for the HIV justice movement;
Celebrated the DOJ findings that HIV criminal laws violate the ADA, based on an innovative legal strategy developed by CHLP;
Challenged the CDC on Molecular HIV Surveillance policy and created a roadmap for advocates on how to address MHS with lawmakers;
Demanded improvements to the Older Americans Act while working to develop a legal primer for people living and aging with HIV, and much more.

The vital partnership of our friends, colleagues, and funders is crucial to this and the important work that lies ahead. Thank you for your continued support.

Renewed Mission, Vision, and Values

In 2023, CHLP engaged in an intentional process of updating its mission and crafting vision and values statements. Our embrace of an abolitionist framework has set a new standard for the HIV justice movement.
