Technical Assistance Directory
The Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program offers training and technical assistance (T/TA) to support recipients in key areas. T/TA takes many forms; the most common are tools, webinars, and manuals found in the TargetHIV Library. Some T/TA providers provide phone and email-based assistance and consultation and others manage regional and national learning collaboratives.
