Mission and programs · 2024

• The AIDS Institutes (TAI) began as a grassroots community mobilization and advocacy effort in Florida in 1985. In 1992, this advocacy network became incorporated as a Florida 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Its mission is to promote action for social change through public policy, research, advocacy, and education. As TAI evolved into a highly respected national organization over the years, it maintains its roots in Florida as the only statewide policy and planning organization dedicated to HIV/AIDS. Over the years, TAI has expanded its vision and scope to include policy offices in Washington, DC, and Tallahassee, Florida. TAIs administrative and program office is located in Tampa. The Tampa office is situated at the University of South Florida, College of Medicine. The breadth of TAIs programs includes: federal policy research, analysis, and advocacy; capacity building and technical assistance; public health research and analysis; education and training; HIV/AIDS and Hepatitis community planning and research; Florida statewide policy and advocacy programs; customized convening and communications. Some TAI specific programs include AIDS Alliance for Women, Infants, Children, Youth, and Families; Aging; and Florida HIV/AIDS Advocacy Network (FHAAN). Other programs include a micro-grant program Women Informing Now (WIN) and Center for Patient Advocate Leaders (CPALS). This expanded vision and scope of TAI effectively address the many aspects of HIV, hepatitis, and other chronic diseases- related issues. TAIs state and federal policy for HIV, viral hepatitis, STDs and health care access is the core of its portfolio. TAI uses the social determinants of health to help guide other issues and work on them as it relates to barriers and access to prevention, care, and treatment. We impact social change through improved policies, legislation, and resource allocation through our work with the state officials, the administration, executive agencies, congress, media, and national/community partners. These activities often impact the entire country. While the focus of TAIs mission is HIV/AIDS and viral hepatitis, its goal is to prevent new infections for all those at risk, which are often at risk for other STIs.

• Florida Comprehensive Planning Network - The AIDS Institute coordinates and supports meeting logistics for the statewide Florida Comprehensive Planning Network (FCPN). HIV community planning is an ongoing, comprehensive planning process intended to help assure that resources, particularly federal HIV prevention and care resources, target populations living with or at risk for HIV infections. The FCPN is a community-based HIV prevention and patient care planning body that collaborates with the Department to develop a comprehensive statewide HIV prevention and care plan. In 2023, TAI added the Florida Viral Hepatitis Network (FVHN) to the activities which includes an annual face-to-face meeting. The purpose of this contract is for The AIDS Institute to assist the Department in supporting the Florida Comprehensive Planning Network (FCPN), committees, and statewide workgroups with the coordination and planning of activities that impact persons living with HIV within the state of Florida. For 2024 and 2025, there were four active workgroups as part of TAIs work with the Florida Department health contract. The workgroups include the Community HIV Advisory Group (CHAG), Florida Mens Health Workgroup (FMW), and the HIV/AIDS Section Medication Formulary Workgroup (HSMFW), and the Statewide Integrated HIV Prevention and Care Plan Workgroup. TAI facilitated an additional meeting above our two planned regular FCPN meetings. The Florida HIV/AIDS Comprehensive Planning Network (FCPN) meeting was a hybrid in-person/virtual formal with nearly 140 FCPN members, Department of Health staff, and community guests participating. The focus of the meeting was to develop further the Florida Statewide Integrated HIV Prevention and Care Plan CY 2022-2026 (Integrated Plan).TAI also provided support for the development and implementation of the monitoring and evaluation plan for the Integrated Plan. TAI also started work on Integrated HIV Prevention and Care Plan CY 2027-2031 (Integrated Plan).The AIDS Institute also provided support for the Florida Comprehensive Planning Network (FCPN) to the following FCPN committees: Membership, Nominations, and Bylaws Committee, Coordination of Efforts Committee, Medication Access Committee, Needs Assessment Committee, and Executive Co-Chairs Committee. Additionally, TAI provides support for the Florida Viral Hepatitis Network (FVHN). TAI also supported ongoing scheduling and/or distribution of multiple correspondences for the Community HIV Advisory Group (CHAG), Florida Mens Health Workgroup (FGMW), Florida Viral Hepatitis Network (FVHN), and the HIV Section Medication Formulary Workgroup (HSMFW). Services performed by The AIDS Institute for this program include: administrative support services to FCPN, Committees, and Statewide Workgroups. Other services included, but were not limited to: preparation, planning, and logistics for convening meetings; as well as related activities, conference calls, community training and education; communication; technical assistance; and records management. In addition, TAI coordinated communication such as scheduling, promoting, inviting, sending participation notices, agendas, record management of meetings and conference calls for workgroups, planning, and advisory groups, and recording and distributing summaries of FCPN, FVHN, and FCPN-related committees, and workgroup meetings. Ending the HIV Epidemic (EHE) - Hillsborough County: The AIDS Institute (TAI), serving as the Center for Systems Integration and Coordination (C-SIC), plays a pivotal role in the implementation of teh Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA)-funded Ending the HIV Epidemic (EHE) initiative in the Hillsborough and Pinellas County jurisdictions. As the coordinating backbone organization, TAI facilitiates collaboration among subrecipients, government agencies, community partners, and people with HIV (PWH). It supports strategic planning, ensures stakeholder engagement, and fosters alignment across othe rgetting to Zero initiatives such as Zero Hillsborough and Fast-Trach Cities. TAI also leads efforts to engage underrepresented populations, using community assessments, interviews, and focus groups to identify gaps and tailor services to meet local needs. TAI is responsible for driving innovation and capacity building by identifying and implementing evidence-informed models of care that address gaps in linkage, retention, and viral suppression. It provides technical assistance, organizes training in partnership with regional providers like SEAETC, and leads quality improvement efforts through data analysis and continuous feedback. TAI also manages the coordination of evaluation activities, ensuring that both qualitative and quantitative data inform the adaption of services and strategic direction. For the EHE project, TAI contributes to sustainability planning and policy alignment by leveraging its expertise in advocacy, research, and systems integration. Ryan White Part A including Clinical Quality Management: The AIDS Institute (TAI) is responsible for the development, implementation, and oversight of quality management and evaluation-related efforts undertaken by TAI in the Tampa/St. Petersburg Metropolitan Area. TAI is also responsible for ensuring compliance with established policies, procedures, and all mandated federal, state, and local laws and regulations of the Ryan White program according to the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program National Monitoring Standards. This work requires the development and implementation of various quality management and performance evaluation plans in conjunction with stakeholders or as required by grant deliverables. It also entails facilitating quality management workgroup meetings and ensures attendees are represented across the spectrum of HIV care, including individuals living with HIV. TAI provides training, support, and technical assistance on the implementation of standards of care, outcome measures, Clinical Quality Improvement (CQI) methods and practices, and agency specific CQI efforts consistent with HRSA HIV/AIDS Bureau National Quality Center expectations and guidelines.

• The AIDS Institutes (TAI) education programs are expansive in scope and impact. Most are part of TAIs general programs and education. The following details some of the programs. As part of TAIs Florida Consortium for HIV/AIDS Research (FCHAR) program. TAI staff planned and facilitated the 2025 Florida Community Providers and Researchers (Florida CPR). The conference sponsors were TAIs FCHAR and the Southern HIV & Alcohol Research Consortium (SHARC), brought together community members, providers, and researchers to network with colleagues and peers, learn about ongoing and current research initiatives throughout the state, and create synergy amongst the attendees for potential future collaborative research projects. This unique event brought community stakeholders, healthcare providers, and researchers to the same room to cross-share information that might not otherwise be heard, promoting inclusion of community and providers perspectives into the research community. Another component of TAIs education and advocacy programs is the Patient Advocacy Leaders (PALS) Initiative and Center for Patient Advocacy Leaders (CPALs). PALS has been a trusted and respected series of patient advocacy meetings considered to be best-in-class. It was designed to connect diverse health advocacy leaders to improve their advocacy capacity and identify ways to collaborate and unify the voices of many. The Center (CPALs) was launched upon fundamental principles, practices, and values of PALS; the staff has been better able to harness and more broadly utilize the resources, learnings, and the collective advocacy actions of health leaders and their grassroots organizations from all across the country. This has ultimately led to amplifying the patient voice loud and making advocacy efforts more effective. The Advocate Advisor network (an expansion of our former PALS Advisory Board) is crucial to enabling our well-established advocate-centered model, By Advocates, For Advocates, which focuses on the needs of patients and caregivers, health advocacy leaders, their organizations, and the diverse communities they serve. In addition to establishing CPALs and expanding the pool of advisors, TAI also introduced a program called Patient Advocacy Leaders United (PALs United). PALs United programs are designed to focus on a single therapeutic area or population instead of cross-therapeutic/general healthcare programs like National PALs. Working in this more focused way allows for a deeper dive into the therapeutic area or populations issues, with a better chance for identifying and pursuing meaningful action. Another of TAIs programs is Women Informing Now (WIN) Micro-Grant Program. It was established to provide micro-grant funds to activate individuals and organizations leading grassroots HIV outreach projects that innovatively reach cis and/or transgender women to break down isolation and stigma via the prevention, education, and engagement regarding HIV and sexual health. TAIs capacity building & technical assistance, patient advocacy training & support, women & children programs, faith initiatives, public policy & health policy analysis, community and provider education, training & skills building, HIV/AIDS & hepatitis community planning, HIV/AIDS & hepatitis research, communications, convening, conference planning & meeting coordination, and a highly acclaimed intern and fellowship program are just some of the successful programs. This expanded vision and scope of TAI, effectively addresses the many aspects of HIV/AIDS and other chronic disease-related issues. Part of TAIs work included planning, coordinating, and facilitation of all-digital webinars, virtual meetings, and small and large-scale face-to-face meetings and conferences.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.
