The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) is accepting applications for the fiscal year (FY) 2022 Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) Special Projects of National Significance (SPNS) Program Initiative titled Supporting Replication (SURE) of Housing Interventions in the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (SURE Housing).

Donor Name: Health Resources and Services Administration

Country: United States

State: All States

Type of Grant: Grant

Deadline (mm/dd/yyyy): 01/21/2022

Size of the Grant: $3,500,000

Grant Duration: 4 Years

The SURE Housing initiative has two separate yet coordinated recipients: the Implementation and Technical Assistance Provider (ITAP) funded under this announcement (HRSA-22-031); and an Evaluation Provider (EP) funded under a different announcement (HRSA-22-032). Both the ITAP and the EP must coordinate activities and share information and data in the design, implementation, evaluation, communication, and dissemination of this initiative. The success of this initiative is dependent on the collective success of the individual components, with the ultimate goal of communicating and disseminating replication tools to the broader RWHAP, HIV, and housing communities.

The purpose of this funding announcement (HRSA-22-031) is to support a single organization that will serve as the ITAP to provide technical assistance to up to 10 sites (“implementation sites”) implementing and adapting housing-related evidence-based interventions, evidence-informed interventions, and emerging strategies (collectively, “intervention strategies”) for the following three key populations of people with HIV experiencing unstable housing:

  • lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer or questioning (LGBTQ+) people;
  • youth and young adults (ages 13-24); and
  • people who have been justice involved (i.e., people impacted by the justice system).

The ITAP will select and fund implementation sites under individual subawards; provide implementation-related technical assistance to the sites; and develop a communication plan and replication tools for widespread adoption of these housing-related intervention strategies for these three key populations of people with HIV experiencing unstable housing. The EP, funded under the companion announcement (HRSA-22-032), will develop and implement a multi-site evaluation of these intervention strategies and provide evaluation-related technical assistance using an implementation science framework. The ITAP will support the EP and implementation sites in carrying out the multi-site evaluation.
