Minority Serving Institutions' HIV/AIDS Demonstration Initiative and Sustainability Project


Minority youth are increasingly vulnerable to HIV/AIDS, and few programs target this population on college campuses. In order to advance new strategies to increase HIV prevention activities for minority youth, HHS/OHAIDP awarded a four-year contract to Abt Global to administer the MSI HIV/AIDS Prevention Sustainability Demonstration Initiative. For this project, Abt has partnered with the National Minority AIDS Council and the National Native American AIDS Prevention Center. The goals of the initiative are to provide technical assistance to MSIs, increase their capacity to address the sexual health needs of minority college and university students, and encourage and promote new partnerships for HIV prevention activities. MSIs funded include: four Historically Black Colleges and Universities, one Hispanic Serving Institution, and two Tribal Colleges or Universities. Additionally, as part of this initiative, Abt supported OHAIDP in activities designed to advance implementation of the National HIV/AIDS Strategy.
