Act Title I Minority AIDS Initiative
(MAI) Report: NEW (Title I MAI

the Public Health Service Act). The Title
I Minority AIDS Initiative (MAI)
supplement is a component of the CARE
Act Title I Program to ‘‘address
substantial need for care and support
services for minority populations in
eligible metropolitan areas (EMA).’’ The
overall goal of the MAI is to improve
HIV/AIDS-related health outcomes for
communities of color by allowing
communities to: (1) Expand local
service capacity primarily through
community-based organizations serving
racial and ethnic minorities; (2) improve
service delivery; and (3) support the
development of new and innovative
programs designed to reduce HIV/AIDSrelated health disparities.
The Title I MAI Report is designed to
collect performance data from Title I
MAI grantees, and has the following two
components: (1) The Title I MAI Plan
(Plan) and (2) the Title I MAI Year-End
Annual Report (Report). The Plan and
Report components will be linked to
minimize the reporting burden, and
designed to include check box
responses, fields for reporting budget,
expenditure and client data, and openended text boxes for describing client or
service-level outcomes. Together, they
will collect information from grantees
on MAI-funded services, the number
and demographics of clients served, and
client-level outcomes. This information
is needed to monitor and assess: (1)
Increases and changes in the type and
amount of HIV/AIDS health care and
related services being provided to each
disproportionately impacted community
of color; (2) increases in the number of
persons receiving HIV/AIDS services
within each racial and ethnic
community; and (3) the impact of Title
I MAI-funded services in terms of clientlevel and service-level health outcomes.
This information also will be used to
plan new technical assistance and
capacity development activities, and
inform the HRSA HIV/AIDS Bureau
(HAB) policy and program management
functions.
The Title I MAI Report form and
instructions will be available for all
grantees to download from the HRSA/
HAB Web site. All grantees will submit
completed data forms through a link on
the HRSA/HAB Web site. Grantees may
submit a hard copy form to the HRSA
Call Center. The Title I MAI Report will
be designed to include check box
responses, numeric responses, and
open-ended questions. All Title I
grantees receiving MAI funds from HAB
will be required to submit their service
providers’ data in an aggregate form by
service category utilizing one Title I
MAI Report.

grantees is as follows:
