DESCRIPTION

This RFP seeks vendors to provide outreach and education services in support of the AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP) in New York. The main objective is to identify and engage individuals eligible for ADAP, assist them with enrollment, help transition them to more comprehensive healthcare coverage, and provide referrals to address immediate needs.

Funded programs must implement clearly defined outreach activities directed toward high-risk and high-prevalence racial/ethnic populations and individuals. The focus includes emphasizing the importance of knowing one's HIV status, encouraging early entry into care, sharing information on healthcare coverage options, and promoting agency services. The proposal encourages innovative uses of social media, Facetime, and online platforms to support social distancing as an adjunct to in-person engagement.

Outreach will be coordinated with staff from internal or external HIV counseling and testing initiatives to ensure immediate linkage for newly identified HIV-positive clients. Programs are also expected to propose strategies to locate previously known HIV-positive individuals who are out of care, with the goal of re-engaging them in comprehensive medical care and support. Utilizing trained peers from priority subpopulations is encouraged, as these peers can serve as mentors, helping clients navigate support systems and adhere to antiretroviral treatment.
