Topic: Pediatric Care
The Ryan White program is named in honor of Ryan White, a young person who was infected with HIV as a child, and died before he reached adulthood. Although new cases of HIV infection in children have fallen to a low level in the United States, Ryan White providers continue to be the leaders in pediatric care.
