The Greater Hampton Roads
HIV Health Services Planning Council
- The Norfolk TGA (Transitional Grant Area) Ryan White Part A Planning Council is a federally mandated community group of dedicated volunteers appointed by the Mayor of the City of Norfolk, Virginia to plan the organization and delivery of Ryan White Part A HIV/AIDS services.
- Part A funds are used to meet the health service needs of people living with HIV/AIDS that are not met by any other health care programs.
- The Planning Council takes the lead in conducting many of its legislated responsibilities and shares duties with the grantee in some areas. To guarantee that a broad range of ideas are heard, the planning council membership must reflect specific areas of expertise as well as disproportionately affected and historically under served populations.
- If you are interested in becoming a member of the Ryan White Part A Planning Council of the Greater Hampton Roads TGA, download the Membership Application and follow the instructions for submission.
