This webinar featured the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene and the Philadelphia Department of Public Health’s efforts to incorporate implementation science methods into HIV programming and evaluation.
NASTAD, in collaboration with the CDC’s Division of Viral Hepatitis, developed the “Viral Hepatitis Testing: Health System Assessment Toolkit,” a comprehensive resource that includes information and considerations for creating a jurisdiction-specific health system assessment (HSA) in response to recently revised and expanded hepatitis B and C screening guidelines issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force.
This toolkit is designed for new viral hepatitis health department staff to help you get started in your new role and includes basic information, recommendations, key national partners, CDC funding opportunities, and where to go for help.
Due to the high prevalence of viral hepatitis, HIV, and STIs in correctional facilities, as well as, the opportunity for high-impact interventions to be implemented, many health department viral hepatitis, HIV, and STI programs (prevention programs) have established collaborative partnerships with correctional facilities in their jurisdiction. These include forming financial relationships to provide viral hepatitis, HIV, and STI services.
Panelists provide best practices on their efforts to implement universal screening and vaccination within their communities, challenges they have faced, and the findings of a brand new Call-to-Action to eliminate hepatitis B through the new universal recommendations.
