FY Contract Awards We anticipate an increase in each LHJs prevention grant base funding, depending on our CDC Prevention Award. The five newly funded LHJs will receive a 6-month prevention grant for January – June of this FY. The new allocation formula utilizing HIV/AIDS incidence and prevalence data will be used to distribute the additional funds. FY funding will be distributed using the allocation formula, based on the new CDC award amount.

Expectations of additional Base Funding Will be added to LHJs current Prevention grant base funding To be used to enhance prevention program activities listed in new FOA. ◦ May include additional testing at high-risk, high-yield sites ◦ May include additional PwP prevention activities ◦ May be used for capacity building, training and planning for new prevention program

Transition Funding OA applied for and was awarded $900,000 from CDC to support transitional activities as we begin the new CDC PS Prevention Program. These are one-time funds to be used and invoiced for during the period covering January 1, 2012 through June 30, OA will use the allocation formula to distribute the additional funds to 15 currently funded LHJs. The funds are to be used to continue implementing current HIV prevention activities that will discontinue at the end of FY The funds cannot be used to add new sites, add services or expand current FY activities.
