The Initiative will improve access and retention for women of color living with HIV/AIDS in the U.S. Each grantee is encouraged to consider opportunities to partner with their local community-based organizations who are members of the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence. • HRSA/HIV/AIDS Bureau is currently working on a CARE Action Newsletter focused on the intersection of violence and HIV/AIDS. • HRSA/Bureau of Primary Health Care funds 26 Federally Qualified Health Center grantees in 20 states that offer services through domestic violence shelters. Services are provided at 40 shelters. A majority of these grantees are funded under the Health Care for the Homeless Program. • HRSA Office of Women’s Health manages the Bright Futures for Women’s Health and Wellness Initiative (BFWHW) to plan, develop, implement, and evaluate a variety of evidence-based, culturally competent consumer, provider, and community materials increasing women’s awareness and use of preventive health services.
