Ending the HIV Epidemic (EHE) – Care Phase I Evaluation Report
Fiscal year 2020-2024
This report provides evaluation outcomes for the EHE-Care program for FY2020-2024. The following data points are included: HIV incidence and prevalance, care continuums (overall and for key populations), funded service categories and client totals, and newly HIV positive client enrollment data.
Phase 1 of the EHE Initiative in Cuyahoga County proved very successful, overcoming barriers from the COVID-19 pandemic at its inception and serving over 7,000 total clients. These clients have consistently higher linkage to care, retention in care, and viral load suppression rates and have improved care outcomes when compared to those who have not accessed EHE services. It is to be hoped that Phase 2 of the EHE Initiative experiences the same successes and has the opportunity to expand to even more service categories.
