Description

The Women Informational Network (WIN) micro-grant initiative supports grassroots, women-led, community-based organizations and leaders conducting innovative approaches that reduce isolation and stigma for women of color with HIV, with a special emphasis placed on women with HIV living in rural areas and ‘resource deserts’ not connected to care.

Learning Objectives

  1. Identify social networks of support, engagement, and trust among women of color with HIV.
  2. Identify new models that expand supportive networks of women of color with HIV to include those not currently engaged in care and ensure women are regularly engaged in healthcare while creating stronger community leadership among women with HIV.
  3. Expand networks of women of color with HIV to include those not currently engaged in care.
