This grant is for the purpose of addressing critical gaps in HIV care for individuals released from prison. Annually, thousands of persons with HIV are released, often lacking crucial support for continued treatment and viral suppression. This funding opportunity aims to improve adherence and retention in care by supporting the development and implementation of effective, sustainable, and replicable Long-Acting Injectable Antiretroviral Therapy (LAI-ART) programs within prison facilities. These programs would commence prior to and at the time of release. The initiative also seeks to understand the feasibility and acceptability of providing LAI-ART to this population through applied qualitative and quantitative research. Ultimately, this effort is expected to significantly strengthen adherence to ART and improve health outcomes for persons reentering the community.

| Description: | Each year, approximately 6,500 persons with HIV living in prison facilities are released to the community, often lacking support for ongoing HIV care. There is a paucity of programming for this population that demonstrates effective retention in HIV care and sustained HIV viral suppression after release. The use of long-acting injectable antiretroviral therapy (LAI-ART) prior to and at the time of release from prison may improve adherence to HIV treatment, retention in care, and maintenance of viral load suppression among persons reentering the community. The primary purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to support the development and implementation of effective, sustainable, replicable LAI-ART programs for prison facilities and to understand the feasibility and acceptability of providing LAI-ART to persons with HIV living in prisons who are to be released to the community. Applied qualitative and quantitative research resulting from this funding is expected to strengthen adherence to ART. |
