White House Seeking Community Input on 2026-2030 National HIV/AIDS Strategy
Topics
Summary:
The White House and HHS are seeking public input on the development of the next National HIV/AIDS Strategy and national strategic plans for STIs, viral hepatitis, and vaccines. Participants at the National Ryan White Conference are encouraged to share their ideas on August 20. Other opportunities for input to follow.
The White House Office of National AIDS Policy (ONAP) and HHS Office of Infectious Disease and HIV/AIDS Policy (OIDP) have initiated the process to develop the next National HIV/AIDS Strategy (NHAS), which will cover 2026-2030. Concurrently, OIDP will be developing the next iterations of the STI National Strategic Plan, Viral Hepatitis National Strategic Plan, and Vaccines National Strategic Plan. The current NHAS spans 2022-2025 and the three national strategic plans also continue through 2025.
While federal, state, and community partners continue to implement those plans, ONAP and OIDP are beginning the processes to thoughtfully develop the next iterations of these plans by gathering public input. The first of several opportunities for community members to share their ideas will be on Tuesday, August 20, 2024, at the National Ryan White Conference in Washington, DC. A listening session will be held from 9:00 AM to 10:00 AM at the conference hotel. Conference participants are encouraged to join this session and share their ideas, recommendations, and feedback.
Additional listening sessions are planned, including at the upcoming U.S. Conference on HIV/AIDS in New Orleans. Written suggestions will also be sought through a Request for Information that will be published in the Federal Register soon.
