The Tuberculosis (TB) Elimination Alliance is offering Mini-Grants to organizations serving Asian American (AA), Native Hawaiian (NH), and Pacific Islander (PI) communities that are disproportionately impacted by latent TB infection (LTBI) and/or TB. Mini-Grant proposals must align with TB Elimination Alliance’s priority areas and activities that reflect community engagement and education, provider education, and/or quality improvement category areas.

TB Elimination Alliance Priority Areas:

1. Raise awareness about the link between LTBI and TB disease, address misperceptions, decrease stigma, and encourage and facilitate testing and treatment for LTBI and TB
2. Increase awareness of the recommended shorter treatment regimen for LTBI
3. Encourage providers to test and treat LTBI among at-risk populations
4. Create a culturally and linguistically appropriate LTBI and TB education, training and community engagement resources and activities that resonate with high priority AA, NH, and PI communities
