Join us on Sunday, June 28th for the 2026 Pride Health Fair: MONEY FOR AIDS + HEALTHCARE — NOT FOR ICE + WARFARE
U.S. taxpayers demand an end to government funding for ICE and warfare. Meanwhile, the Trump administration has made historic cuts to healthcare, slashing over $1 trillion from Medicaid, $500 billion from Medicare, and more than $20 billion from research funding, while simultaneously advancing a proposed $1.5 trillion military budget and more than $75 billion to expand ICE operations.
For LGBTQIA+ communities, immigrants, people living with HIV/AIDS, and marginalized communities, the diversion of public resources away from care and toward punishment, violence, and war is not new.
In 1991, ACT UP’s Day of Desperation protests declared: “MONEY FOR AIDS, NOT FOR WARFARE.” Thirty-five years later, as healthcare, science, immigrant communities, and human rights continue to be attacked, the demand is no longer symbolic — it is an urgent call for survival.
This year marks our 6th Annual Pride Health Fair — a necessary act of political resistance in response to escalating attacks on healthcare, science, immigrants, LGBTQIA+ communities, and human dignity.
We are bringing together hospital systems, clinics, researchers, legal advocates, mutual aid groups, and community organizations to provide direct services to LGBTQIA+ communities during Pride.
As healthcare becomes increasingly inaccessible and unaffordable, this event remains a vital opportunity to provide care while building solidarity and community power.
We invite you to join us and experience all the community offers this Pride season, including:
• On-site testing and vaccinations
• HIV/STI services
• Provider consultations
• Affordable healthcare navigation
• Harm reduction resources
• Mental health support
• Housing support
• Legal services for immigrants and vulnerable communities
• Research and science outreach
• Community education and advocacy
EVENT DETAILS
June 28, 2026 Sunday Pride
12:00 PM – 5:00 PM
Thompson Street between Washington Square South and West 3rd Street
(South edge of Washington Square Park adjacent to Judson Memorial Church)
The whole block is ours. For healthcare. For survival. For community.
This is not just another event — it is an act of political resistance, mutual care, public health advocacy, survival, and collective community power.
Come and organize with us and help defend human dignity, healthcare, and the survival of our communities at the 2026 Pride Health Fair.
