associated with the publication of a
special supplemental issue of the
journal AIDS Patient Care and STD’s,
which will feature eight articles on
findings from the Special Projects of
National Significance (SPNS) Program
Enhancing Access to and Retention in
Quality HIV Care for Women of Color
Initiative. A program expansion
supplement will allow SPNS wider
dissemination of the most current best
practices and lessons learned for the
care of women of color living with HIV.
The journal AIDS Patient Care and
STD’s has a combined 18,200 print and
online subscribers, and the publisher
will also extend online distribution to
readers of the Journal of Women’s
Health (approximately 32,000
additional subscribers) and to attendees
of the Congress on Women’s Health
(approximately 800 physicians and
nurses).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Intended
Recipient of the Award: Albert Einstein
College of Medicine (Grant #5
H97HA15152–05–00). The amount of
the noncompetitive award is $55,000.
CFDA Number: 93.145.
Period of Supplemental Funding:
September 1, 2014, through August 31,
2015.
Justification: SPNS Program is
charged with the development of
innovative models of HIV treatment, in
order to respond to emerging needs of
those with HIV/AIDS, including clients
served by the Ryan White HIV/AIDS
Program. A major goal of the SPNS
Program is to disseminate findings and
innovative models of care and treatment
to the broader HIV provider community
and encourage replication of successful
models/interventions.
The SPNS Women of Color Initiative
began September 1, 2009, and involved
11 demonstration site grantees and an
Evaluation and Technical Assistance
Center—the Albert Einstein College of
Medicine. The Initiative enrolled 921
women of color living with HIV/AIDS in
its multi-site evaluation; the findings
from this initiative can improve the care
of women living with HIV through the
identification of best practices and
lessons learned. The Albert Einstein
College of Medicine has served as the
Evaluation and Technical Assistance
Center for the SPNS Women of Color
Initiative from September 1, 2009, to the
present. As such, this grantee has been
tasked to lead and coordinate all
dissemination activities for this
initiative, and is best-positioned to lead
and facilitate the publication process.
This program expansion would allow

underserved, un/under-insured
populations, including those from
communities of color.

Program, to current grantee, the
University of Washington NWAETC, for
approximately $250,239 during the
budget period July 1, 2014, to June 30,

Washington NWAETC to develop a
unique and flexible HIV distance
learning curriculum that can be used in
a variety of health care settings by a
variety of health care providers. This
on-line curriculum will enhance our
ability to reach and so increase the
numbers of health care providers skilled
in delivering HIV/AIDS care and
treatment at a time when there is a
greater demand for these professionals—
especially primary care physicians.

CFDA Number: 93.145
Period of Supplemental Funding: July
1, 2014, through June 30, 2015.
Justification: With the
implementation of the Affordable Care
Act, more people, including those living
with HIV/AIDS, are able to access care
and are being seen by providers in a
variety of settings, including community
health care centers. This has resulted in
an increased need for primary care
providers to receive training in HIV
care. A program expansion supplement
will allow the NWAETC to develop a
comprehensive portfolio of web-based,
HIV primary care distance learning and
assessment resources and tools that will
reach greater numbers of health care
providers across the nation. This free,
state-of-the-art HIV care and treatment
curriculum will be evidence-based and
aligned with up-to-date federal
guidelines. Further, the curriculum
would be accessed in an online
environment that is effective at
assessing HIV training needs, providing
relevant, tailored training to meet those
needs, and will monitor and evaluate
individual and group progress
throughout the curriculum.
The University of Washington
NWAETC, now in the fifth year of a
5-year project ending on June 30, 2015,
is uniquely positioned to rapidly
develop and deliver the national HIV
care and treatment distance curriculum,
having the necessary infrastructure for
implementation already developed and
in place, and having previously
demonstrated the capacity to develop
similar products. A distance HIV
curriculum is consistent with the goals
of the AETC program—to provide HIV
treatment education, clinical
consultation, capacity building, and
technical assistance to health care
professionals and agencies. An on-line
HIV care and treatment training
curriculum will help to better meet the
HIV training needs of the current health
care workforce that is working to
achieve the goals of the National HIV/
AIDS Strategy (NHAS).
