The Arizona 2022-2026 HIV/STI/Hep C Integrated Plan

Written in partnership with our community.

ARIZONA 2022-2026 HIV/STI/HEP C INTEGRATED PLAN 

The HIV/STI/Hep C Integrated Plan covers the overlapping  epidemics of HIV, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and  hepatitis C (hep C) across Arizona. It was created to serve  Arizonans affected by or experiencing risk for HIV, STIs, and hep C, and functions as a high-level framework to direct our priorities, goals, and strategies.

More detailed information on the activities and suggestions for  each objective is available – email HIVIntegratedPlan@azdhs.gov if you are interested in more information on a specific objective!  

You can also review the data we gathered to help us write the plan – click to read our Epi Snapshot and our Needs Assessment.

We learned SO MUCH from the participants of our Integrated Plan process throughout 2021 and 2022. Our published plan only includes goals, objectives, and strategies….but there was so much more!

The planning team has compiled all of the activities, details, and considerations that we heard from planning participants into a Companion Document. If you would like additional documentation to support program development, expansion, or adjustments, please complete this short survey to request the Companion Document.

HOW ARE WE DOING SO FAR? 

The Integrated Plan team monitors and evaluates the Integrated Plan each fall. See below for our first reports.

Want to participate in our evaluation efforts? We send out a survey to gather feedback on how we’re doing each fall. Check back here in early fall 2024 for the survey link!

HOW CAN I GET INVOLVED? 

The Arizona HIV Statewide Advisory Group (SWAG) supports all  statewide planning efforts. It meets quarterly, and is open to all  people in Arizona interested in or affected by HIV! We’d love to have you join us at our next meeting – please email Deborah.Reardon@azdhs.gov for more information. 

Each winter, the Integrated Plan team hosts a webinar to share  updates from the previous year. Our next update webinar will be held in January 2024. Please check back for more information as that date gets closer.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION & RESOURCES 

When developing the current plan, focus groups were conducted  in February – June 2022 to inform the plan. The results and  takeaways are included in a short report, linked here. 

Needs assessment surveys on HIV, STI, and hep C services were  also conducted in 2021 and 2022 to prepare for writing the plan.You can email us at HIVIntegratedPlan@azdhs.gov to hear about what we learned. 

The 2022-2026 HIV/STI/Hep C Integrated Plan was built upon  national and state HIV, STI, and hepatitis C goals, plans, and  strategies. It also drew on previous HIV prevention and care plans  written in partnership with the community, such as the 2017-2021 Integrated HIV Prevention and Care Plan for Arizona, and the 2020 Ending the HIV Epidemic Plan for Maricopa County (Spanish).
