Overview
Fiscal year (FY) 2021 Ending the HIV Epidemic—Primary Care HIV Prevention (PCHP) funding is available for up to 175 health centers on a competitive basis. PCHP funding will expand HIV prevention services that decrease the risk of HIV transmission in geographic locations (PDF - 76 KB) identified by Ending the HIV Epidemic: A Plan for America.

- Have at least one permanent operational services delivery site in one of the 57 geographic locations identified by Ending the HIV Epidemic: A Plan for America; and
