Description
- Abstract
- Summarythe GAY and lesbian community center of southern nevada, INC. (the center), in cooperation with two subcontractors, and other community partner organizations, is serving as the applicant agency to conduct the southern nevada comprehensive high-impact HIV prevention program serving LAS vegas, clark county in southern nevada. Since 1992, the center has operated as the premier community-based, non-profit organization whose mission supports and promotes activities directed at furthering the well-being, positive image, and human rights of the lesbian, GAY, bisexual, transgender, community, its allies, and low to moderate income residents in southern nevada. The specific service area of southern nevada encompasses clark county and its five metropolitan jurisdictions including the cities of LAS vegas, north LAS vegas, henderson, boulder city and mesquite. Clark county is the most populous of nevada's 17 counties, and is the nation's GEOGRAPHICALLY13TH-largest county, providing services to more than 2.3 million citizens and nearly 46 million visitors a year (2019), primarily in LAS vegas. The ?clark county ending the HIV epidemic plan 2020-2026? Shows that as of 2019, nevada ranked third in the nation for the percent of the population identifying as lgbtq, at 5.5 percent. Clark county contains 73 percent of nevada's population and 78 percent of lgbtq residents. Nevada has the highest rate (16.6) of new HIV infections in the western U.S. Clark county, the most populous county in nevada, has a new HIV infection rate of 19.8, higher than the overall state rate. Only 41% of clark county's population has ever been tested for HIV; only 11% had been tested in the past year. Approximately one in five people living with HIV in clark county is unaware of their status.a chronic lack of sufficient resources has prevented the full expansion and enhancement of HIV services at the center. CDC funds will assist US to develop and implement truly comprehensive, high-impact HIV prevention services, making a significant difference in the quantity/quality of HIV services and significantly reducing the scope of the HIV epidemic in southern nevada. Objectives are to increase identification of HIV diagnoses, referral for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PREP) and non-occupational post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) services, promote earlier entry to HIV care, and provide increased consistency of care. Our approach addresses both comprehensive HIV core program strategies/activities and operational program strategies/activities. The project encompasses: 1) expanded outreach/recruitment efforts to increase testing and access to care for HIV positive persons; 2) increased use of social networks to reach target populations, particularly african american MSM; 3) expanded healthcare services to provide on-site treatment for HIV positive persons; and, 4) expanded risk reduction education programs. Short term outcomes include: increasing the number persons who are aware of their HIV status by an estimated 39 percent; and increasing the number of persons who receive integrated screenings for stds, and viral hepatitis by an estimated 39 percent.subcontractors include: silver state equality to conduct elements of our operational strategy and RM park consulting, LLC, to serve as data manager/project evaluator. Silver state equality is a nevada-based program affiliated with equality california and equality california institute, the nation?S largest statewide lgbtq+ civil rights organization. Our data manager/project evaluator is a registered nurse with background and experience in HIV services, and extensive experience in federal grant data collection, analysis and reporting. She will be responsible for working with project staff and with CDC to collect, analyze and report required project performance data.
