Strengthening the health and resilience of women, children and families
impacted by HIV/AIDS
![Page 14: ACCESS = HEALTH A Conversation on Funding Access to & Retention in Care with AIDS United](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568152e5550346895dc10439/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Christie’s Place is a leading nonprofit communitybased organization in San Diego County that provides culturally competent and comprehensive HIV/AIDS education, support, and advocacy.
Our mission is to empower women, children, and families whose lives have been impacted by HIV/AIDS to take charge of their health and wellness.
![Page 15: ACCESS = HEALTH A Conversation on Funding Access to & Retention in Care with AIDS United](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568152e5550346895dc10439/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

San Diego County Need• In 2010, 69% of women living with HIV who knew their status
were not accessing medical care
• San Diego is the 2nd largest county in CA– 4,200 square miles– Includes City of SD (7th largest city in country)– Borders Mexico (TJ is most active international border)
• No county hospital – rely on community clinics and UCSD
• MSM EMA, as such services tend to focus on men– Overall lack of family and women centered care and competency
• Women generally isolated from local HIV agencies and/or uncomfortable accessing care at traditional service locations
![Page 16: ACCESS = HEALTH A Conversation on Funding Access to & Retention in Care with AIDS United](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568152e5550346895dc10439/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
ClientProfile
• Heterosexually infected• Woman of color• Child bearing age• Low-income or poor• Low education level• Single parent or head of
household• Two or more children• Unemployment or lack of
occupation
• Relationship discord or domestic violence
• Trauma or abuse during childhood
• Low self-esteem or mental illness (depression or anxiety)
• Substance abuse or partner with this problem
• Chaotic home life
![Page 17: ACCESS = HEALTH A Conversation on Funding Access to & Retention in Care with AIDS United](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568152e5550346895dc10439/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• Network of Care Model – system wide collaborative care approach to address access and linkage to care– Involves multiple collaborating organizations – Coordinated array of strategies to provide care completion services– Targeted to low income HIV+ women– County-wide
• Collaborative partners:– UCSD Antiviral Research Center– UCSD Mother, Child, and Adolescent Program – UCSD Owen Clinic– Casa Cornelia Law Center– American Friends Services Committee: US Mexico Border Project– Cardea Services (evaluation)

CHANGE for Women Strategies • Expand capacity of Peer Navigator network at new clinic sites and
through mobile, home-based model
• Medical Home via My Chart
• Increase access to clinical care via enhanced transportation, food and childcare
• “I Am More Than My Status” social marketing campaign
• Center of Excellence in Women’s HIV Care & Research – Expanded hours and bilingual capacity– Integrated medical care and behavioral health services
• Formalized linkages and partnerships with immigration rights and social justice organizations
– Human rights education– Legal advocacy for undocumented women and/or detained women

Strategic Alliances• Why choose this option? ACA, funding, positioning in community,
diversification of services
• Staying true to our mission and expertise– Understanding and articulating what we bring to the table – the
“value added”/ROI for clinical partners
• Developed/developing strategic alliances with clinical partners– Co-location with primary care
• Peer navigation• Behavioral health• Medical case management
– Part of clinic health teams– Whole person care
• Patient and family support• Social support services
• Strengthening medical home models
![Page 20: ACCESS = HEALTH A Conversation on Funding Access to & Retention in Care with AIDS United](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568152e5550346895dc10439/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
20
Successes• The “partnership” - tactics are strengthening medical home
model and improving coordinated care– Peer Navigation model has brought 212 out-of-care and
sub-optimally engaged in care HIV+ women back into care– Improved health outcomes of clients
• Expansion of Fem-Owen Clinic, development of Center of Excellence
• Co-location of services and integration with provider teams = enhanced culturally appropriate & person-centered care; comprehensive care management; care coordination
• Since program implementation, local unmet need decreased from 69% in 2010 to 64% in 2011, and then to 57% in 2012.– Increased access to care for HIV+ women by 12%
![Page 21: ACCESS = HEALTH A Conversation on Funding Access to & Retention in Care with AIDS United](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568152e5550346895dc10439/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
21
Challenges & Discoveries• Obtaining the local funding match • California changes to healthcare (LIHP, Medicare HMO, etc.)
present numerous challenges and care interruption
• Findings that a higher percent of CHANGE for Women clients report sexual assault history than the general population
• CHANGE for Women clients report current and past intimate partner violence, including 18% who are in a relationship currently where they do not feel safe
• Clients reporting substance abuse were:• Less likely to report having ‘basic’ needs like food or money• More likely to report intimate partner violence during the year before
entering C4W• More likely to report needing alcohol/other drug treatment or mental
health services
![Page 22: ACCESS = HEALTH A Conversation on Funding Access to & Retention in Care with AIDS United](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568152e5550346895dc10439/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
CHANGE for Women Phase II:
Retention in Care (RiC)
![Page 23: ACCESS = HEALTH A Conversation on Funding Access to & Retention in Care with AIDS United](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568152e5550346895dc10439/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
CHANGE for Women Phase II: RiC• Trauma-informed and gender responsive bio/psycho/social model
• Program expands upon established access to care efforts by improving RiC and ART adherence for HIV+ women of color in San Diego County, with an emphasis on African Americans and Latinas, including documented and undocumented immigrants
• Strategies target the well-documented co-occurring barriers that prevent effective engagement in care and RiC and necessitate access to ancillary services to augment HIV care:
mental health conditions substance abuse history of abuse/trauma low health literacy
• 175 women will be assessed and monitored for RiC services over the funding period– 60 women will receive onsite behavioral health services yearly– 30 women will receive onsite strength-based case management yearly– 150 women will engage in monthly educational Treatment Education
Adherence (TEA) sessions yearly
![Page 24: ACCESS = HEALTH A Conversation on Funding Access to & Retention in Care with AIDS United](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568152e5550346895dc10439/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Strategy I. Expand scope and impact of the existing CHANGE for Women program through innovative and replicable interventions that strengthen RiC and ART adherence
• Create system-level change by establishing formalized RiC partnership with UCSD Owen Clinic via Retention in Care Specialist
• Expand capacity of Christie’s Place and partner agencies to deliver trauma-informed RiC services through ongoing training on the principles and practices of trauma-informed service delivery
• Expand Social Marketing Campaign, “I Am More Than My HIV Status” to increase messaging about RiC and the importance of ART adherence
![Page 25: ACCESS = HEALTH A Conversation on Funding Access to & Retention in Care with AIDS United](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568152e5550346895dc10439/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Strategy II. Expand integrated treatment teams to assess, identify and treat specific RiC barriers
• Expanded RiC treatment team allows for thorough assessment of clients who need additional support to meet health outcomes Bilingual RiC Peer Navigators Retention in Care Specialist MSW-level Medical Case Manager Mental Health Clinicians (including Clinical Manager) Primary Care Physician/Provider, Psychiatrist, and other service providers
working with client
• RiC treatment team will develop a tailored service plan for each client
• RiC treatment team will engage in ongoing discipline-specific clinical training on the intersections of trauma, mental health and substance abuse
• Empowerment focused, strength-based, collaborative, gender responsive, culturally competent, and positioned to promote transformative social change
![Page 26: ACCESS = HEALTH A Conversation on Funding Access to & Retention in Care with AIDS United](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568152e5550346895dc10439/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Strategy III. Provide tailored services to address identified barriers that prevent retention & adherence to ART therapies
• Trauma-Informed Client Orientation (fosters hope, informed consent and investment in program participation and ensures client understanding of her role as an active collaborator in the treatment process with the ability to make choices regarding treatment and services)
• RiC Barrier Assessment (strength-based, trauma-informed mental health, substance abuse and support system assessment which ascertains the client’s current level of functioning, barriers to optimal engagement in care and RiC, and the level of social support currently available to the client)
• Behavioral Health individual, family, and group counseling services (clients with significant scores on the aforementioned trauma, substance abuse and/or mental health measures will be referred to the on-site mental health counselor working under the supervision of the Clinical Manager for tailored behavioral health treatment)
• Treatment Adherence Activities (monthly Afternoon TEA [Treatment Adherence and Education] workshops, eight-week Treatment Adherence support group)
![Page 27: ACCESS = HEALTH A Conversation on Funding Access to & Retention in Care with AIDS United](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568152e5550346895dc10439/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Next Steps
• Working with State partners on how to certify
or credential Peer Navigation — can this become a reimbursed service?
• Electronic Health Record technology
• Public and commercial third party insurance reimbursement for behavioral health services• Becoming providers on the Health Exchange/Marketplace plans• Reimbursement through sub-recipient agreements

National Evaluation
• Aim to answer, at the national level, cross-cutting questions about identification, linkage, re-engagement and retention in care
• Cross-cutting findings about the successes, challenges, and barriers of linkage to care will inform current and future programs
• Cross-cutting findings will speak to the successes and challenges of the broader health care system, including policy

Limitations
• Cannot definitively test causal hypotheses• Potential bias emerge from programs
collecting their own data• Data collection methods vary across and
within sites• Programs vary across grantees• Program fidelity may vary within grantee sites• Attrition – Linkage to care vs. retention in care

Conclusions• SIF1 has enrolled over 1,197 participants• A2C participants meet the national
demographic profile of individuals who are at greatest risk for HIV
• On average date of first diagnosis was 9 years prior to enrollment in A2C
• A2C participants face a variety of structural and psychosocial needs and barriers to care
• A2C participants’ health outcomes are trending in the hypothesized direction from baseline to six months

Conclusions (II)
• A2C organizations have formed dense complex multi-organization networks that collaborate to link PLWH into care
• Preliminary analyses show that A2C programs appear to have highly achievable cost-saving and cost-effectiveness threshold
