Grant Description

This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) seeks to establish self-sustainable comprehensive clinical services for men who have sex with men (MSM), transgender (TG) and bisexual individuals living with HIV/STI in the Dominican Republic (DR). This project will require joint public-private collaboration between the Ministry of Health (MOH), other governmental entities, Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) in order to effectively reach the target population and support sustainable clinical services. The collaboration will create comprehensive services to reach, test, treat, and retain MSMs, TG and bisexual individuals living with HIV and create direct linkages to MOH services for people newly diagnosed with tuberculosis (TB). These clinical services will also become training centers for MOH medical, nursing, and laboratory staff and students.
