Running on empty: Can a red HIV outreach van outlast federal cuts?

A distinctive red van is a familiar sight in the Twin Cities, providing essential services to locals. The van, known as "Thrivey," offers a range of support including food, water, clothes, and first aid, as well as free HIV tests. The van follows a regular schedule, visiting different parts of the cities on specific days. On Mondays, it can be found in St. Paul, while Wednesdays and Thursdays are spent in south Minneapolis. Fridays are dedicated to north Minneapolis. Further information about the van and its operations can be found in a report from The 19th, which explores the van's work and its potential challenges.
