  • BHSP Communications and Social Media Toolkit (2025)
    The Bureau of HIV and STI Programs (BHSP) Communications and Social Media Toolkit was created to help agencies establish, build and maintain consistent communications and standards for public health messaging. This toolkit breaks down several key factors for successful messaging, including using plain language, developing graphics, tips for consistent posting or reposting of content and much more. BHSP’s goal is to build off other available resources, such as Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) content, national organization toolkits, etc., to help set agencies up with the foundational tools to build their platforms and engage with the community.
  • MDHHS Insurance Navigation Toolkit (2025)
    The Insurance Navigation Toolkit illustrates how to apply insurance programs’ eligibility criteria in different client scenarios. The toolkit was developed to aid Ryan White program staff, including case managers and early intervention specialists, to provide successful insurance navigation services. Successful insurance navigation services are required to achieve and maintain compliance with federal payor of last resort policy that can also promote sustainability and good fiscal stewardship of community HIV care resources toward Ending the HIV Epidemic.
  • MDHHS Using Ryan White Funding for Security Deposits Toolkit (2025)
    Stable and secure housing plays a critical role in improving health outcomes and supporting long term engagement in care for people with HIV. The HRSA Ryan White (RW) HIV/AIDS Program has expanded allowable use of funding to now include security deposit assistance. Agencies who are already funded for housing services and may choose to utilize RW funds to help RW eligible clients establish residency. This technical assistance webinar will walk through policy and procedure updates, provide guidance on implementation and cover allowable costs with required documentation. Let’s work together to leverage this funding opportunity to ensure people with HIV can access and maintain stable housing, an essential foundation for health and wellbeing.
