HIV and Injection Drug Use Syringe Services Programs for HIV Prevention

This Vital Signs highlights the importance of expanding access to SSPs, which provide sterile needles and syringes and ideally offer many other comprehensive services to help improve the health of PWID and their communities, such as treatment for substance use disorder, HIV, and hepatitis testing and linkage to treatment, and safe disposal of used syringes.

AIDS Drug Assistance Program Benefits Management Toolkit

This toolkit supports Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) Part B AIDS Drug Assistance Programs (ADAPs)—which provide access to HIV-related medications for low-income individuals—in navigating the planning, selection, and implementation of benefits management contracts. It offers key definitions, planning tools, real-world examples, and checklists to help ADAP administrators—new or experienced—align contractor selection with their program’s unique infrastructure and needs.
