About grants for hiv/aids

HIV/AIDS grants fund medical care, medication access, case management, prevention, and support services for people living with or at risk of HIV. The largest source is the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program, administered by HRSA, which supports care for hundreds of thousands of low-income, uninsured, and underinsured people each year through grants to states, cities, and community-based organizations. The CDC funds HIV prevention, and foundations support additional outreach and research.

A long list is the starting point, not the shortlist. Our grant prospecting guide shows how to narrow grants for hiv/aids down to the funders most likely to say yes, using their giving records.

What grants are available for HIV/AIDS programs?

Grants fund outpatient HIV medical care, medication and the AIDS Drug Assistance Program, medical case management, mental and behavioral health, housing, transportation, and prevention services. Ryan White funding is organized into parts that reach metropolitan areas, states and territories, clinics, and special populations. CDC prevention funding supports testing, education, and pre-exposure prophylaxis programs.

Does HRSA fund HIV/AIDS care?

Yes. HRSA administers the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program, the primary federal program for HIV care and treatment for people with limited income who are uninsured or underinsured. It funds eligible metropolitan and transitional areas, states and territories, clinics, and community organizations to deliver direct care and support services. The CDC separately funds HIV prevention and surveillance efforts.

Who else funds HIV/AIDS nonprofits?

In addition to HRSA and the CDC, state and local health departments pass through federal HIV dollars to community providers, and private funders support gaps that federal programs don't cover. National and regional foundations fund prevention, stigma reduction, research, and services for specific communities. Many HIV nonprofits combine Ryan White funding with Medicaid, pharmaceutical assistance programs, and philanthropy.
