Grant Description

Purpose The purpose of this integrated funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is to strengthen core HIV, viral hepatitis, STD and TB prevention and treatment efforts in the USAPIs, support cross-cutting activities across programs (e.g., surveillance, screening, evaluation and data systems), and reduce the administrative and reporting requirements. This will be done by: optimizing public health service delivery by expanding service integration; maximizing opportunities to screen, test, treat, and/or vaccinate those in need of these services; improving the health among populations negatively affected by multiple diseases; collaborating across program areas and improving operations through the use of shared data. This integrated FOA combines program requirements included in four distinct FOAs that will streamline funding applications, minimize administrative burdens, and reduce duplication.
