This is an EXTENSION request for the
current GENERIC information collection request (ICR) 0920-1091. The
overall purpose of this GENERIC ICR is to conduct qualitative
studies to quickly identify barriers and facilitators to HIV
prevention, care and treatment in specific regions with high HIV
burden in the US. Intended use of the resulting data is to identify
ways to improve local programmatic activities for specific
communities along the continuum of HIV prevention, treatment and
care for populations and areas with the greatest HIV burden. These
qualitative studies will collect data using well-established rapid
assessment methodologies, including: semi-structured and in-depth
qualitative interviews, focus groups; direct observations; document
reviews; and structured surveys. The populations to be studied
include local networks of persons living with HIV and persons at
high risk of acquiring HIV, including: persons with different
racial and ethnic, age, and socioeconomic characteristics; men who
have sex with men; transgender persons; women; and persons and
organizations providing HIV prevention, care, and treatment
services to impacted populations. Data will be analyzed using
well-established qualitative analysis methods, such as coding
interviews for themes about barriers and successes to HIV
prevention, care, and treatment. Structured response surveys will
be analyzed using descriptive statistics and other appropriate
statistical methods.
