About the HealthHIV REINFORCE Initiative
To ensure that healthcare professionals who treat, care for, and/or support people with HIV are aware of retention and re-engagement interventions to overcome barriers to returning to care, HealthHIV launched the REINFORCE Initiative: Re-engaging People with HIV in Care Through Workforce Response and Resiliency.
REINFORCE is a comprehensive capacity building and multi-format educational initiative. This initiative is supported by an educational grant from Gilead Sciences, Inc.
It is strategically designed to include a robust capacity building initiative for HIV care delivery sites, an HIV retention and re-engagement in care resource repository — HealthHIV REINFORCE Center for Retention in HIV Care — with training tools for providers and patients, as well as access to a series of CE/CME-certified activities, each featuring a variety of supplemental educational components and downloadable clinical practice tools.
