Funding may be requested as part of general operating or program requests to fund program adjustments, personal protective equipment (PPE), technology, emergency supplies, and other specific projects/efforts that ensure people living with HIV or AIDS have access to the care and resources they need. Through Positive Action Community Grants (PACG), ViiV Healthcare supports community-led efforts to increase engagement in prevention and care, address stigma, and build trust in HIV care among communities most disproportionately impacted by HIV and AIDS. Organizations applying to Positive Action Community Grants may request funding for general operating support, special events sponsorships, or project support.

Approximately half (51 percent) of non-retired adults indicate the economic impact of the coronavirus pandemic will make it harder for them to achieve their long-term financial goals, a survey from the Pew Research Center finds.
Based on more than ten thousand survey responses from adults in the United States, the report, A Year Into the Pandemic, Long-Term Financial Impact Weighs Heavily on Many Americans, found that among respondents who say their financial situation has gotten worse during the pandemic, 44 percent believe it will take at least three years to get back to where they were a year ago, including about one in ten who don't think their finances will ever recover. Low-income adults are among the most likely to say they or someone in their household has lost a job or taken a pay cut since the outbreak hit the United States, and among those who've had such experiences, low-income and Black adults are more likely to say they have taken on debt or put off paying their bills in order to cover lost wages or salary. By contrast, 39 percent of upper-income adults indicated that their family's financial situation has improved compared with a year ago.

PURPOSE: This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) for the Human Immunology Project Consortium (HIPC) solicits applications from single institutions, or consortia of institutions, to participate in a network of human immunology profiling research groups in the area of infectious diseases, including HIV. The purpose of this FOA is to characterize human immune responses/mechanisms elicited by vaccinations, vaccine adjuvants or natural infections by capitalizing on recent advances in immune profiling technologies. Studies supported under this FOA will measure the diversity and commonalities of human immune responses under a variety of conditions and longitudinally using high-throughput systems immunology approaches coupled with detailed clinical phenotyping in well-characterized human cohorts. The resulting data will be used to develop molecular signatures that define immune response profiles and identify biomarkers that correlate with the outcomes of vaccinations, vaccine adjuvants or natural infections in humans. An additional goal of this program is to promote rapid public access to HIPC-supported data and meta-data through public portals such as ImmPort.
