Project to enhance the provision of HIV care for Latina transgender women in Los Angeles County.
HRSA’s HIV/AIDS Bureau has adopted a broad strategy for identifying HIV service delivery models. At one end of the spectrum are relatively flexible criteria for identifying emerging and innovative models, based on “real world” efficacy. At the other end of the spectrum are more rigorous evidence-informed standards.
