I spent the day in Chicago for the first nationwide 988 Conference. As we near the two-year anniversary of our transition from the ten-digit number to the three-digit Lifeline, we can announce that it’s received over 9.5M contacts – helping thousands of people get help each day.

HHS & Department of Housing and Urban Development have made federal funds and flexibilities available to support evidence-based solutions, and we look forward to working with U.S. Mayors to implement them.

Our Director of HHS OCR, Melanie Fontes Rainer, shares her heartbreaking story as an example of how women need to be able to make personal health care decisions with their doctor—and thanks to her team’s work on our HIPAA privacy rule, these decisions can stay just that: private.

I traveled to meet with Tribal leaders and discuss the Administration’s commitment to improving infrastructure and health care access throughout Indian County.

President Biden’ 2025 Budget allocates $8B in discretionary funding for IndianHealthService – a substantial increase from previous years.
