HHS Awards $69 Million in Continuation Grants to Help Ensure Early HIV Care

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services today announced 111 continuation grants totaling $69.4 million to health care organizations to provide early intervention, outpatient health care and related services to low-income people with HIV and AIDS and those at risk of contracting HIV.

The grants, with a Jan. 1, 2002, start date, help ensure that early HIV care is targeted to those communities that need it most — particularly rural and remote areas.  The grants are funded under the Title III Early Intervention Services program of the Ryan White Comprehensive AIDS Resources Emergency (CARE) Act, which is managed by the Health Resources and Services Administration’s HIV/AIDS Bureau.

Grant recipients include community-based clinics and medical centers, hospitals, public health departments and universities in 30 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico.  All grantees currently operate Title III-funded programs, having been awarded these grants in the past.

Typical Title III services include HIV counseling and testing, medical evaluation and outpatient clinical care.  CARE Act programs fund a broad range of primary health care and support services for low-income, underinsured and uninsured people living with HIV/AIDS.

The list of recipients is attached below.
