Program description
The purpose of the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) Part D program is to provide family-centered care in outpatient or ambulatory care settings to low-income women (25 years and older) with HIV, infants (up to 2 years of age) exposed to or with HIV, children (ages 2 to 12) with HIV, and youth (ages 13 to 24) with HIV. The RWHAP Part D funding is intended to improve access to coordinated and comprehensive HIV medical care and support services. The services often include case management, behavioral health, nutrition services, and referrals to specialty care.
As the only component of the RWHAP that supports services for affected individuals not living with HIV, Part D may fund services when the primary purpose is to enable the affected individual to participate in the care of a person with HIV , to directly remove barriers to care for the person with HIV, or to promote family stability.
The purpose of this supplemental funding is to strengthen organizational capacity to respond to the changing health care landscape and increase access to high quality family-centered HIV primary health care services for low-income women, infants, children and youth (WICY) with HIV. Activities fall under two categories: HIV Care Innovation and Infrastructure Development.

💡 Tips for applicants
- Build a strong needs assessment using epidemiological data on HIV prevalence among women, infants, children, and youth in your service area; cite local surveillance data and community input.
- Emphasize your organization's existing infrastructure and experience—HRSA reviewers prioritize applicants with proven capacity to deliver HIV services to these specific populations.
- Detail your culturally competent, trauma-informed approaches to engaging women and youth; address barriers they face in accessing care (childcare, transportation, stigma).
- Include letters of support from partner organizations, health departments, and community leaders that demonstrate coordination and reduce service duplication.
- Clearly articulate how supplemental funding will expand or enhance existing services rather than replace current funding; show what additional capacity or populations you will reach.
⚠️ Common mistakes
Applications often fail when they lack specific epidemiological data about the target population in their service area or rely on general national statistics instead of local evidence of need. Many applicants underestimate the importance of demonstrating organizational capacity—HRSA wants to see proven track records serving women and youth, not just theoretical readiness. Another common weakness is failing to address specific barriers women, infants, children, and youth face in accessing care, and not clearly explaining how the organization will reduce health disparities.
