SAMHSA TCE/HIV Program: NIATx Learning Collaborative

On February 3, the NIATx STAR (Support, Training and Resource) Program held a grantee kick-off meeting with participants of the SAMHSA TCE/HIV NIATx Learning Collaborative. The meeting featured James Harrison (of NIATx founding member site Brandywine Counseling) discussing how HIV/AIDS-specific programs have successfully used NIATx principles. Fifteen treatment agencies working with HIV/AIDS clients are entering into this pilot Learning Collaborative to improve access and retention processes, with a particular interest in increasing use of rapid HIV testing.
