NACCHO is seeking a consultant to provide subject matter expertise, technical assistance, and strategic planning support to one EHE jurisdiction and create materials to support widespread scaling of model practices to other jurisdictions around the country.
The influx of Ending the HIV Epidemic in the U.S. (EHE) initiative funds to local jurisdictions has presented them with new programmatic and administrative challenges, including the coordination and integration of new planning requirements into existing jurisdictional planning efforts, the rapid scale up of community engagement initiatives, the identification and implementation of best practices, training and orientation of new staff, and management and allocation of new federal funds.
Such jurisdictions can benefit from internal strategic planning that would result in outcomes that include, but are not limited to
- Shared organizational buy-in and understanding of the EHE initiative across team members
- Translation of EHE jurisdictional plans into team related workplans
- Planning for implementation of best practices and associated quality assurance and quality improvement processes
- Planning for expanded and improved community engagement
Up to $20,000 is available to the selected applicant(s). The consultant should have subject matter expertise in strategic planning, HIV care or prevention, health systems, and local health department infrastructure and systems.
Access the Request for Proposals here. DEADLINE EXTENDED: Applications must be submitted electronically by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on Wednesday, September 15, 2021. For questions about this opportunity, please reach out to [email protected].
