Opportunity Summary:

The HIV Care Grant Program Part B (HRSA-13-158, CFDA 93.917) is a discretionary grant from the Health Resources and Services Administration designed to help states and U.S. territories build, expand, and strengthen access to a full continuum of high-quality, community-based HIV care for low-income people living with HIV (and their families). The funding is explicitly tied to the National HIV/AIDS Strategy goals: reducing new HIV infections, improving access to care and health outcomes, and reducing HIV-related health disparities. In practical terms, the program is meant to support systems of care that help people get diagnosed, linked to medical care, started on effective treatment, and retained in ongoing care over time.

Part B funds can be used to support a broad set of core medical services that make up a comprehensive HIV continuum of care. These include outpatient and ambulatory health services and the AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP), along with local pharmaceutical assistance programs. The grant also covers oral health care, early intervention services, assistance with health insurance premiums and cost sharing, home health care, medical nutrition therapy, hospice, home and community-based health services, mental health services, and medical case management (including treatment adherence services). Substance abuse outpatient care is also included among core medical services, recognizing how strongly behavioral health and substance use can affect treatment success and long-term outcomes.

A central purpose of the program is to ensure that people living with HIV can receive HIV treatment that aligns with U.S. Department of Health and Human Services treatment guidelines. That includes ensuring access to antiretroviral therapy and other needed medications, including drugs used to prevent and treat opportunistic infections, and the use of appropriate combination antiretroviral regimens. The grant’s emphasis is not only on providing services, but on supporting care that meets established clinical standards and helps patients achieve viral suppression and improved overall health.

In addition to core medical care, the program recognizes that many people need supportive services to successfully access and stay engaged in primary medical care. Part B can therefore support related services such as non-medical case management, child care, emergency financial assistance, food bank services and home-delivered meals, health education and risk reduction activities, housing-related services, legal services, linguistic services, medical transportation, outreach, psychosocial support, referrals to health care and supportive services, rehabilitation, respite care, residential substance abuse services, and treatment adherence counseling. Importantly, the framing in the announcement makes clear that supportive services should be used in ways that enable clients to access and remain in primary medical care, rather than functioning as stand-alone services disconnected from care engagement.

Eligibility is limited to governmental applicants: all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and a wide range of U.S. territories and freely associated states (including the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, the Northern Mariana Islands, Palau, the Federated States of Micronesia, and the Marshall Islands). Each state or territory must designate a lead agency responsible for administering the award and handling key management duties, including conducting needs assessments, preparing a state/territory plan, submitting applications, serving as the primary point of contact for notices, and compiling and submitting audits to the Secretary every two years (including audits related to how funds were spent by grantees within the state).

The announcement indicates an expected 59 awards and does not require cost sharing or matching. Award ceiling and floor amounts are listed as zero in the summary data, which typically signals that specific funding levels are determined by formula, appropriations, or other program rules rather than a fixed competitive range in the posted synopsis. Key dates in the posting show it was originally posted October 2, 2012, created January 8, 2013, with an original closing date of January 4, 2013 and a current closing date of January 9, 2013, and an archive date of March 5, 2013.
