Opportunity Summary:

The AIDS Education and Training Centers Telehealth Training Centers Program (TTCP) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) designed to strengthen HIV care in rural communities by using telehealth as a practical, provider-focused tool. The central purpose is to expand access to high-quality HIV clinical expertise and to improve health outcomes for underserved, hard-to-reach people living with HIV who are already in medical care but face barriers tied to geography, limited specialty availability, and strained local resources. Rather than building a new clinical service line that replaces local care, the program is structured to reinforce and extend the capabilities of existing rural clinics and providers so they can deliver stronger HIV care where patients live.

A major emphasis of the program is building the capacity of healthcare providers involved in HIV/AIDS care delivery across a region or state. The TTCP approach relies on telehealth technology in three main ways. First, it supports clinical consultation, which can include structured case presentations and patient co-management between local clinicians and experienced HIV experts; importantly, this consultation model is meant to complement, not replace, referrals to specialists when a patient needs direct expert evaluation. Second, it funds education and training modalities that create a continuum of longitudinal learning, meaning trainees are not limited to one-time events but can participate in ongoing, progressive training experiences over time. Third, it promotes the development of an informed support system for trainees, which can be understood as sustained mentorship, peer learning networks, and accessible technical and clinical resources that help providers maintain competence and confidence after formal training sessions end.

In practical terms, the grant supports telehealth-enabled training infrastructure and programming that help rural-serving clinicians keep current with HIV clinical management, improve decision-making in complex cases, and integrate best practices into routine care. The telehealth component also implies a focus on efficient knowledge sharing and dissemination, helping expertise travel to rural sites without requiring patients or providers to travel long distances. While the announcement does not list specific required platforms, it clearly signals a preference for applicants who can use modern digital channels effectively to reach providers and maintain engagement over time.

This opportunity was published under Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-11-172 and falls under the Health funding activity category. It is a grant (not a cooperative agreement or contract) and does not require cost sharing or matching. HRSA anticipated making 3 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $600,000. The opportunity was posted on May 12, 2011, with an application closing date of June 20, 2011, and it was archived on July 17, 2011. The CFDA number associated with the program is 93.145 (AIDS Education and Training Centers).

Eligible applicants include public entities and nonprofit private entities, including schools and academic health science centers, as well as faith-based and community-based organizations. Applicants may be located in rural or urban areas, but they are expected to prioritize services delivered through a telehealth program to rural clinics and/or rural providers. A key eligibility expectation is demonstrated, extensive experience in HIV disease and HIV disease management, along with proven capability in program administration and monitoring; applications that do not clearly show this experience are not considered. Beyond clinical and administrative expertise, HRSA also emphasizes that applicants should be computer-, web-, social media-, and internet-savvy, with strengths in technology, information sharing, and dissemination, which aligns with the program model of delivering consultation, training, and ongoing support through telehealth-enabled systems.
