Deadline: 18-Mar-25
The Health Resources and Services Administration is requesting applications for its Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program to fund projects that create and maintain user-friendly web-based platform.
This platform will serve as a centralized repository for evidence-based interventions, best practices, tools, training and technical assistance (T/TA) products, and resources for improving HIV care, treatment, and support services across populations. The successful applicant will be responsible for the entire project life cycle, from inception to launch, maintenance, and evaluation to include traditional user experience/user interface (UX/UI) processes. Given the volume of information to be housed on the site, it is imperative that the site has advanced search capabilities and a user-friendly design process to ensure ease of use and accessibility.
