Health Care is vital. I live in Miami and most of the AHF locations are understaffed. I believe ensuring healthcare is the most important. Second there is awareness to stop the spread of diseases. Alot of people simple choose not to know, which endangers they're lives as well as others

Just explain your view points and share some of your lived experiences if that helps. It can be a bit scary and overwhelming, but I am sure you're going to do just fine :)
