The Maternal and Child HIV/AIDS Program's services are aimed at achieving the best possible comprehensive care for women, youth, and children infected and/or affected by HIV/AIDS. This program serves to assure that coordination of existing medical care and social support services exists for families living with HIV/AIDS. The program is based on a family-centered care approach of service delivery that recognizes the ever-present influence of family in the management and care of HIV disease.
The HIV/AIDS Prevention and Intervention Section (HAPIS) administers the Ryan White Part D funds. Part D supports services for children, youth, women, and families living with HIV/AIDS. Part D services are designed to be comprehensive, community-based, culturally competent, and family-centered. Funded agencies provide primary and specialty medical care, psychological services, logistical coordination and support, outreach, and case management. Part D employs family case managers and family advocates who serve to link families with needed care across service systems. The Part D Program works to assure that HIV positive women have access to medical therapies that reduce transmission of HIV to their newborn(s), as well as access to clinical trials that provide them state-of-the-art treatment. Part D further assures that HIV exposed, HIV positive children, and youth have access to available clinical trials.
