Ending the HIV/HCV Epidemics in Indian Country

The purpose of this program is to support communities in reducing new human human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections and relevant co-morbidities, specifically sexually transmitted infection (STI) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections, improve HIV-, STI-, and HCV-related health outcomes, and reduce

HIV-, STI-, and HCV-related health disparities among American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) people.

In two separate but related parts, this initiative aims to implement effective and innovative strategies, interventions, approaches, and services to reduce new HIV and HCV infections among AI/AN communities in the U. S. This initiative’s overarching goals are to:
(1) reduce new HIV infections in the U. S. to less than 3,000 per year by 2030; and (2) achieve a 90 percent reduction in new HCV infections and a 65 percent reduction in mortality, compared to a 2015 baseline .
