About this opportunity
The Department of Health and Human Services Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) is seeking applicants for a cooperative agreement to serve as an Implementation Technical Assistance Provider (ITAP) for a national initiative to improve mental health and engagement in care among people with HIV. The ITAP will be responsible for identifying behavioral health evidence-based interventions, selecting and funding up to 10 implementation sites, and providing technical assistance to help these sites adapt and implement the interventions. The ITAP must also collaborate with a separately funded Evaluation Provider to lead the multi-site evaluation and dissemination efforts. Key application requirements include demonstrating organizational capacity, submitting a detailed work plan, and providing staffing and budget information. The application deadline is March 18, 2025, with an expected award date of July 1, 2025 and a project start date of August 1, 2025.
The total funding available for this four-year initiative is $2.25 million in Year 1, $4 million each in Years 2-3, and $2.75 million in Year 4. Eligible applicants include state/local governments, tribal organizations, academic institutions, nonprofit hospitals/clinics, and community health centers eligible for Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program funding. The awarded ITAP will be responsible for leading the national implementation effort, which may involve subcontracting with up to 10 sites across the country.
Synopsis
This initiative has the following three objectives: • Objective 1: Support a national cohort of implementation sites to adapt and implement culturally responsive interventions to engage and retain people with co-occurring HIV and mental health conditions in HIV primary care and mental health services. • Objective 2: Evaluate the implementation of interventions using implementation science frameworks. The EP will document and share evaluation findings throughout the initiative to support successful implementation. The evaluation will assess: ? Intervention adaptations. ? Barriers and facilitators to implementation. ? Implementation strategies. ? Cost. ? Other implementation, client, and service outcomes. • Objective 3: Create and disseminate user-friendly multimedia materials to help other RWHAP organizations replicate effective interventions. This RWHAP SPNS initiative funds one ITAP and one EP. The EP is funded separately under a companion NOFO. The ITAP and EP are required to co-lead the initiative. Full information on required activities and roles and responsibilities can be found in the program objectives and requirements section. This initiative focuses on people with HIV and mental health conditions who are out of care or experiencing barriers to retention in care. You may identify additional priority populations, including those identified by the National HIV/AIDS Strategy (NHAS) [PDF], when you are selecting the implementation sites. Learnings from this initiative will help the RWHAP determine what implementation strategies work to engage people with HIV in care and improve mental health and HIV outcomes in different settings among different priority populations. The ITAP and EP will document and widely share lessons learned with the RWHAP community and beyond to help other organizations replicate these interventions to improve mental health and quality of life among people with HIV in their own settings.
