Topic: Data & Reporting
Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) grant recipients and sub-recipients collect and report client level data. This information is used to assess the numbers and demographics of clients receiving services and their HIV-related outcomes. These data are used to monitor the effectiveness of RWHAP services and progress toward national HIV/AIDS goals, including addressing disparities among communities of color.
Extensive technical assistance is available to grantees to help them to collect and report data appropriately.
