This program provides research grants for projects that test the effectiveness of multi-level interventions to prevent HIV in high-risk health disparity populations or subgroups in one or more geographic areas with a high rate of new HIV infections.
Areas of special interest include, but are not limited to:
- Testing of interventions in multiple geographic hot spots
- Use of cluster randomized trials or multi-site quasi-experimental studies
- Interventions that include clinician- or healthcare setting-level intervention components to enhance cultural competency, reduce health-care related stigma and discrimination, and increase clinician comfort and willingness to prescribe PrEP
- Engagement of community members of the target high-risk health disparity populations or subgroups as investigators, advisors, or peer interventionists
- Collaboration with diverse local stakeholders in addition to HIV-prevention service providers, including school systems, school-based student or parent associations, community-based organizations, consumer organizations, and faith-based organizations, to enhance intervention relevance, feasibility, and sustainability
- Projects that examine cost-effectiveness of intervention implementation and delivery
The largest population focus is HIV-negative men who have sex with men (MSM) and/or transgender women who are African American or Latino/a. Other disparity populations include non-Hispanic White MSM, cisgender Black or Latina women, and rural residents who inject drugs.
