Rural HIV/AIDS Planning Program
Who can apply:
Eligible applicant organizations for the Rural HIV/AIDS Planning program must meet geographic requirements. (Note: the award will be made to only one member of the consortium, the applicant organization, which will serve as the recipient of record.)
The applicant organization must be rural nonprofit private or rural public entity that represents a consortium/network composed of three or more health care providers. Network members may be rural or urban, nonprofit or for-profit entities. Federally recognized tribal entities are eligible to apply as long as they are located in a non-metropolitan county or in a rural census tract of a metropolitan county, and all services must be provided in a non-metropolitan county or rural census tract.
If the applicant organization’s headquarters are located in a metropolitan or urban county, that also serves or has branches in a non-metropolitan or rural county, the applicant organization is not eligible to apply solely because of the rural areas they serve. To be eligible, the applicant organization must meet all other eligibility requirements.
