## Resource

HIV testing and support in Norfolk and Hampton are in crisis as the LGBT Life Center cuts staff in half, slashing outreach and leaving vulnerable communities—homeless, addicted, or stigmatized—at risk. The root cause? A state billing error with Gilead led to a $1 million+ funding shortfall, forcing cuts despite new state money that won’t cover the debt. With vital services like housing and mental health on the brink, the state is scrambling to fix the mess and rebuild trust before it’s too late.
