This National Institutes of Health grant addresses persistent HIV/AIDS health disparities in the US. It aims to research how drug abuse fuels the epidemic among vulnerable populations, including racial/ethnic minorities, men who have sex with men, and youth. The grant supports studies understanding drug abuse’s contribution to HIV acquisition, transmission, and disease progression. It also focuses on developing and improving comprehensive prevention and treatment interventions, alongside enhancing evidence-based service delivery. Furthermore, it addresses organizational, structural, and community factors, such as social and drug-using networks, linked to these disparities. The ultimate goal is to prevent new infections and improve the health and well-being of those living with HIV/AIDS.

| Description: | Despite progress in HIV/AIDS treatment and prevention and reductions in HIV/morbidity and mortality, HIV/AIDS health disparities remain a challenge that must be addressed. This FOA encourages research to identify the role(s) that drug abuse plays in fueling the epidemic in vulnerable groups (racial/ethnic minorities, men who have sex with men (MSM), youth) in the United States and to develop effective interventions to prevent new infections and to improve the health and well-being of those living with HIV/AIDS. This FOA will support studies in vulnerable populations to: 1) understand the contribution of drug abuse (both injection and non-injection) to the acquisition and/or transmission of HIV; 2) study disease progression and disease outcomes; 3) develop and/or improve prevention and treatment interventions, particularly comprehensive, integrated interventions; 4) improve the availability, delivery and quality of evidence-based prevention and treatment services across a variety of settings; and 5) address organizational, structural, and/or community level factors including social, drug-using, and sexual networks associated with health disparities. |
