PROGRAM OBJECTIVES:
To increase the capacity of entities that provide comprehensive primary care services to persons with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection, or who are at-risk of infection, and to offer more early intervention services. The services will include increased counseling and testing, partner involvement in risk reduction, transmission prevention, appropriate primary care diagnostic and treatment services, and, as needed, case-management to ensure that individual service needs are met. A planning and capacity building program provides assistance to organizations wishing to develop a new or expanded HIV program, particularly in rural and underserved areas and communities of color.
