The program specifically targets key populations at high risk of HIV, including female sex workers, men who have sex with men, people who inject drugs, and adolescents, while addressing legal and structural barriers that limit access to healthcare services. With an estimated total funding of $10 million for the first year, the CDC anticipates awarding 1-2 cooperative agreements, with applications due by February 18, 2025, and awards expected to be available starting September 30, 2025.
