Strategies to Maintain HIV Viral Suppression Among State Prison Inmates Released to the Community
This NOFO aims to develop effective, sustainable, and replicable program models that support continuity of HIV care for PWH released from state prisons into the community.
Programs will emphasize linkage to and retention in community HIV care, adherence to HIV treatment, and suppression of HIV viral load.
Programs should also identify PWH and HIV-negative persons at risk for HIV among sex and drug-injection partners and associates of program participants and link them to care.
