| Additional Description |
The Connecticut Department of Public Health (DPH) TB, HIV, STD and Viral Hepatitis Program announces the availability of fiscal year 2019 funds for a demonstration project to develop an internet based, peer-to-peer, PrEP Navigation intervention to increase PrEP access among populations with the greatest burden of HIV in the state, namely Black and Latino MSM (BLMSM). This request for proposal (RFP) will include funding to develop, implement, and evaluate a peer led PrEP Navigation intervention. The applicant must include a collaboration between a Community Based Organization (CBO), an academic institution, and a project evaluator.
The CT DPH HIV Prevention Program is seeking proposals from Connecticut community-based agencies, private organizations, CT State agencies, academic institutions or municipalities to provide the following services: the development of a peer driven intervention that recruits current PrEP users to be sources of PrEP knowledge and positive PrEP role models for their social and sexual networks. The proposed intervention will be provided to individuals at high risk of acquiring or transmitting HIV [i.e. HIV positive individuals, men who have sex with men (MSM) by peer navigators recruited, trained, and evaluated by the applicant. The applicant will provide a detailed demonstration project work plan that describes all phases of the PrEP Navigation intervention development, implementation, and evaluation. |
