Summary
The CDC terminated two grants totaling nearly $10 million — one supporting 13 staff positions including nurses and the health equity team, another funding the sexual health clinic serving 1,800 people a year. A court order buys 14 days while states litigate, but core public health services are at risk.

Impact analysis
Nearly $10 million in federal funding supporting 16 staff positions and sexual health services for 1,800 residents is at risk.
If funding is restored, residents relying on public health infrastructure, HIV prevention services, and senior programs keep those services.
Residents could lose HIV testing, PrEP access, health equity programs, and senior services if the terminations stand.
