Developed by the AETC Engagement in Care Workgroup
This toolkit was developed for use by AETCs and HIV clinical program staff to determine capacity building needs for engagement in care activities, and to help them to compare diverse engagement in care strategies. It includes flowcharts diagramming potential uses for the tools, a list of lessons learned in developing AETC Program partnerships with clinics/health centers, a clinic readiness assessment to increase engagement in care outcomes, a list of capacity-building resources, an engagement in care strategy chart, additional strategy-specific tools, and evaluation tips. This toolkit includes evidence-based interventions for linkage, engagement, and retention in on-going HIV-related health care services for persons with HIV/AIDS in the United States.
