I am delighted to join you today for this very special occasion \u2013 celebrating 20 years of existence of Reach Out Mbuya Community Health Initiative, or ROM as we commonly call it. Congratulations on this milestone! I am especially touched to see not only current, but also past ROM leaders, including CDC Prevention Branch Chief Stella Alamo-Talisuna, who was ROM ED from 2006-2014; so many partners; and of course clients. I am honored to continue the tradition of having an American Ambassador participate in your milestone events. I understand one of my predecessors, Ambassador Jimmy Kolker, officiated in 2019 when you celebrated PEPFAR\u2019s 15-year anniversary, and I look forward to sharing some of today\u2019s photos with him. His past presence and mine today represent the enduring strength of an effective partnership. I am so happy to help expand it.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ug.usembassy.gov\/remarks-by-u-s-ambassador-natalie-e-brown-at-reach-out-mbuyas-20th-anniversary-celebration\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read the full story here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(as prepared for delivery at Reach Out Mbuya\u2019s Banda offices, Nakawa Division, Kampala) Good afternoon!
