For more than five decades, the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation (CBCF) has worked to combat systemic injustices and advance racial equity for Black individuals. Inspired by their example, Gilead Sciences recently sponsored a panel discussion titled “Elevating Policy Solutions to End the HIV Epidemic for Black Women” during the organization’s 52nd Annual Legislative Conference. The 2023 conference, which took place in September in Washington, D.C., focused on the theme Securing Our Democracy. Protecting Our Freedoms. Uplifting Our Culture., and engaged visionaries, legislators and citizens in a variety of topics ranging from civil and social justice to public health.
