Access to Care: Access to Care (A2C) is a five-year initiative funded under the US federal government's Social Innovation Fund (SIF) to identify, document, and evaluate innovative approaches to improving outcomes along the HIV care continuum. This public-private partnership provides $2.2 million per year in federal funding, matched dollar for dollar at the national level and again at local sites. The funding supports 12 community-driven, collaborative programs to improve individual health outcomes and strengthen services systems, connecting thousands of low-income and marginalized individuals living with HIV to quality supportive services and health care. More than 14 private sector funders have contributed matching funds. Profiles of grantees and their respective programs can be found at: http://www.aidsunited.org/Programs-0024-Grantmaking/Access-to-Care.aspxAU manages the groundbreaking national evaluation, led by Drs. David Holtgrave and Cathy Mausby of Johns Hopkins University, which is beginning to reveal cross-cutting findings for the field, and is demonstrating early signs of success. Thousands of people living with HIV/AIDS have been enrolled to date into the A2C Initiative, from the populations most impacted by the epidemic. In our grantee communities, CD4 counts are increasing and viral loads are decreasing. Clients served by these programs are working toward self-sufficiency through treatment adherence, job training, housing stabilization, and peer to peer support.

This work has been generously supported by the Ford Foundation for over 10 years.

The AmeriCorps program is funded by the Corporation for National and Community Service and raised match funds from AmeriCorps partners around the country. In 2015, the 54 AmeriCorps Members completed over 91,000 service hours, helped over 12,000 people learn their HIV status, and reached over 36,000 people through HIV prevention education and outreach services!

AIDS United supports seven innovative programs working with the most disproportionately impacted populations across the country to address one of the largest drop-offpoints along the HIV care continuum. In the third and final project year 2015, the JHU Evaluation team has worked with local evaluators, sites, and AIDS United to highlight data trends, lessons learned, and to measure cost effectiveness of the interventions, while also determining a plan for dissemination of project results. .

Public Policy: AIDS United advocates for people living with or affected by HIV/AIDS and the organizations that serve them. AIDS United's public policy team has been instrumental in the development and implementation of major public health policies that improve the quality of life for those living with and affected by HIV/AIDS. AIDS United's Public Policy Committee (PPC), which provides guidance for AU's policy priorities, is made up of 33 of the country's leading national and local HIV organizations. AU policy staff had nearly 250 visits with federal lawmakers on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C. to educate them about issues related to HIVthat impact people living with and affected by the epidemic in the United States. Issues include ensuring that the Ryan White Program is well integrated into the Medicaid expansion and health insurance marketplaces being created by the Affordable Care Act, ensuring adequate funding for other federal HIV/AIDS programs, through the budget and appropriations process, and ending the ban on the use of federal funds for syringe exchange programs. In addition, AIDS United distributed weekly action alerts to more than 7,000 advocates and stakeholders encouraging them to make their voices heard as constituents of those lawmakers about HIV-related public policy issues; and coordinated AIDSWatch 2013, the largest national federal HIV-advocacy constituent event in the country.
(Code:   ) (Expenses $ 407,907 including grants of $ 112,179 ) (Revenue $ 63,384 )
Other Programs & Communications: AIDS United implements several small scale programs that have opportunity for large impact.Examples include formative research on the delivery of Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis, consultations on the intersection of HIV and trauma, or supporting feedback loops for HIV-positive people to be heard related to health reform concerns. To increase AIDS United's (AU) visibility and cultivate "buy-in" with its internal and external stakeholders, including funders, grantees, organizational colleagues, and advocates AU maintains a website and various social media presences, produces several electronic and print publications, generates appropriate advocacy action alerts, and develops program-specific communications pieces which are designed to inform stakeholders about the impact of AU's grantmaking portfolios. Our communications work is also essential to encouraging efforts for sound HIV public policy. Non-profit organizations, government agencies and for-profit companies increasingly recognize the expertise of AU as a valuable resource that could enhance their work. AU occasionally receives requests by external entities to engage AU or specific staff in a fee-for-service agreement for a specific scope of work that is not otherwise covered by other private restricted income sources.

The Syringe Access Fund (SAF) is a collaborative funding initiative of the Elton John AIDS Foundation, Levi Strauss Foundation, Open Society Foundations, Irene Diamond Fund and AIDS United. The goals of the Syringe Access Fund grants are to: 1) ensure the access and availability of sterile syringes to IDUs residing in the country's communities most affected by HIV and other blood borne diseases to prevent the spread of these diseases; and 2) promote education and awareness among key decision-makers to inform national and state policy around syringe services programs (SSPs).

Positive Organizing Project (POP): The Positive Organizing Project is designed to revitalize a grass-roots organizing movement among people living with HIV and AIDS (PLWHA) that impacts HIV-related stigma, raises education and awareness among policy makers, and indirectly improves outcomes along the continuum of care. The program supports local organizing efforts to address stigma and engagement in care. This is being accomplished by (1) revitalizing the movement of HIV-positive mobilization in local communities, and (2) ensuring synergistic efforts that help us document models that are effective in achieving organizing goals, and can be shared and scaled elsewhere.

This is accomplished through strategic partnering with national LGBTQ organizations, creating and distributing innovative resources like the What Do I Do handbook, facilitating HIV testing at events, and reaching LGBTQ people with targeted HIV prevention and treatment messaging through social media. m2MPower is funded through a cooperative agreement with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

AIDS United is charged with selecting, funding and providing training and technical assistance to twelve performance sites around the country. The end goal of the initiative is to produce four evidence-informed Care and Treatment Interventions (CATIs) that are replicable; cost-effective; capable of producing optimal HIV Care Continuum outcomes; and easily adaptable to the changing health care environment.

Return Reference Explanation
Part I, Line 2: AIDS United ensures the proper use of all grant funds awarded to other organizations. Monitoring procedures include the following: [1] Requiring a narrative application and budget from each grantee detailing the proposed use of grant funds, which serves as the basis for grant awards; [2] Issuing a detailed grant award contract letter outlining the terms and conditions of every grant, which is signed and returned prior to grant awards; and [3] Requiring narrative progress and financial reports from grantees at least annually, but often semi-annually. These reports are reviewed prior to making additional payments to grantees. Additionally, most grants involve considerable interactive contact between AIDS United and grantee organizations throughout the grant periods, including telephone conversations, e-mail communication, and site visits, which serve grant monitoring purposes as well as provide occasions for technical support.
