The South Dakota Ryan White Part B CARE Program is funded by an annual federal grant. Its goal is to assist low-income, HIV-infected individuals with the cost of specific health care needs. Benefits are determined by federal guidelines and a state advisory council made up of representatives from health care, those with HIV disease, support groups and state agencies.
