Chicago Center for HIV Elimination - UChicago C4P

The University of Chicago Center for HIV Elimination (CCHE) seeks to eliminate new HIV transmission events over the next 30 years (from 2011 to 2041) by using network science to target and integrate prevention as well as create structural, person-centered, and community-specific interventions that reduce the opportunity for HIV transmission amongst individuals that are most vulnerable to HIV/AIDS. Our focus is to improve the overall health and well-being of patients in the program by addressing a wide range of medical and social needs. The CCHE program builds off of the medical home model of care and clinic without borders strategies, which offers patients that are the most vulnerable to HIV/AIDS a non-traditional response to their health care needs. CCHE patients are regularly asked about a range of unmet social needs and given access to a resource coordinator, community health worker, and community-based arts and culture programming.
