NACCHO is pleased to announce two new funding opportunities to decrease syphilis via community engagement. Both opportunities focus on engaging community members to develop, or tailor, a plan to decrease syphilis burden in the local community.
The National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO) represents nearly 3,000 local health departments (LHDs) across the United States.
On January 20th, 2023, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) published new analysis on substance use among persons with syphilis during pregnancy.
Last week, the Massachusetts Department of Public Health announced the first cases of a concerning new gonorrhea strain. The new strain shows reduced response to multiple antibiotics and another case was also found that had genetic markers that indicate a similar drug response. The clinical alert from the Massachusetts Department of Public Health can be found here.
In May 2022, the National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO) convened a group of national experts to develop a national research agenda for sexually transmitted infection (STI) prevention and treatment for the next five years.
In November, the HIV, STI, Viral Hepatitis, and Harm Reduction Workgroup (HSHW) met in person, with representatives from CDC to share LHD experiences in the HIV, STI, and Harm Reduction spaces, hear of CDC priorities, and strategize together on advancing program successes and addressing program challenges.
New data shows that the current MPOX outbreak is disproportionately affecting people living with HIV and those experiencing homelessness. This population meets eligibility requirements for assistance through HUD’s Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS (HOPWA) and Homeless Assistance programs.
