Petition updateSave Lives, Cut Costs: Add Naltrexone to the ADAP FormularyA Promising Step Forward - and Why We Must Keep Pushing On

We have an exciting development to share: there may be a stop-gap measure that could help individuals access naltrexone immediately by requesting an exception for non-formulary medication, which, if approved, could allow access even before naltrexone is formally added to ADAP. While approval is not guaranteed, this is a hopeful step toward ensuring people get the care they need NOW.

At the same time, this does not replace the urgent need for systemic change. We must continue to mobilize and advocate so that all people living with HIV and struggling with substance use disorder have guaranteed access to this lifesaving medication.

Thank you all for your incredible support so far - you are the strength behind this movement. Please keep the momentum going:

👉 Share this petition on your social media platforms.
👉 Contact local media and news outlets.
👉 Reach out to LGBTQ organizations and substance use advocates.
👉 Call or email key decision makers in your area.

Together, we can turn hope into lasting change.

With gratitude,

Colby
