About this opportunity

This cooperative agreement from the Department of Health and Human Services seeks applicants to implement and evaluate hepatitis C linkage to care interventions. Eligible entities include institutions of higher education, non-profits, local and tribal governments, and for-profit organizations to partner with community organizations serving populations with high hepatitis C prevalence such as correctional or harm reduction settings. Successful applicants will work to improve treatment rates and reduce transmission, disparities, liver cancer, and mortality. Applications are due August 2nd and will be evaluated based on likely public health impact and dissemination potential.

Award amounts were not specified but recipients are expected to develop resources for nationwide dissemination. Performance sites will likely include communities disproportionately impacted by hepatitis C such as those served by correctional or syringe services programs.

Synopsis

The Office of Infectious Disease and HIV/AIDS Policy (OIDP) anticipates funding a linkage to care intervention and evaluation project that demonstrates the effectiveness of streamlined linkage to hepatitis C treatment from settings with high prevalence of hepatitis C. The purpose of this initiative under the Public Health Service Evaluation Fund is to implement and evaluate hepatitis C community navigation and linkage to care interventions. Interventions of interest are those that are likely to improve hepatitis C treatment rates, reduce transmission, reduce hepatitis C disparities, and reduce hepatitis C-related liver cancer and mortality among people who are disproportionately impacted by viral hepatitis. Examples of settings with high prevalence of hepatitis C may include correctional settings or harm reduction programs. Recipients will work with community partners to implement and evaluate interventions and develop resources for dissemination to diverse stakeholders.
