Ceg CBA program - Community Education Group (CEG) is proposing a component D project to address a persistent public health problem—disproportionately high HIV rates in high-risk populations—and support a range of public health priorities.

Through the program, CEG will work with health departments (HDs) and community-based organizations (CBOs) to build individual competencies, provide technical expertise, strengthen organizational capacities, and enable supportive structural environments for the nation’s HIV workforce to plan, integrate, implement, evaluate, and sustain HIV prevention and surveillance programs.

Through the CBA program, CEG will build on and leverage its expertise providing TA, training, and other capacity building assistance activities to organizations that reach those most affected by HIV/AIDS to address programmatic challenges to effectively plan, integrate, implement, evaluate, and sustain HIV prevention programs.

CEG will provide individualized and specialized TA for CDC-funded HDs and CBOs, working to improve the programming that prioritizes people disproportionately affected by HIV including gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men, in particular Black, Latino, and American Indian/Alaska Native men, Black women, transgender women, youth aged 13-24, and people who inject drugs.

Outcomes. CEG will achieve the following outcomes by the end of the period of performance:

Short-term outcomes: Strengthened HD and CBO organizational capacity to support comprehensive HIV programs to diagnose, treat, and prevent HIV and syndemic conditions, and address SDOH and inequities;

Intermediate outcomes: Enhanced HD and CBO structural environments to support the effective operation of equitable HIV prevention programs and address syndemic conditions, SDOH, and inequities;

Long-term outcomes: National highly skilled HIV workforce that promotes and supports the reduction of new HIV infections, increased access to care and improved health outcomes for people with HIV, reduction of HIV-related health disparities and health inequities, and a coordinated national response to end the HIV epidemic.
