Summary
Grantees received termination notices effective February 11, 2026 for CDC HIV and STD prevention and surveillance funding, described in grantee announcements as roughly $600 million in cuts targeting California, Minnesota, Colorado, and Illinois. Terminated awards included transgender-specific programming — e.g., San Francisco Community Health Center lost over $300,000 supporting its TransHOPE peer-outreach program linking young transgender women to HIV/STI services. The cuts followed the administration's 2025 proposals to eliminate CDC's HIV-prevention division. (See also sections 2, 11.)
