This RFA is for Retention in care support for HIV-positive clients receiving co-located medical care at drug treatment programs in New York City. Funding will support programs that enhance the engagement and retention of HIV+ drug treatment clients in ongoing medical care, with a focus on improving health outcomes, including sustained viral suppression. The intent of this program is to target clients who have difficulty adhering to treatment protocols and appointments, and, therefore, have difficulty achieving and sustaining viral load suppression. |
