Details
Bangor Public Health and Community Services has spent the past year exploring ways to expand PrEP access.
Committee recommended the resolve to the Council. Staff said the up to $6,000 only offsets staff time to build a plan with community partners and Johns Hopkins; any later implementation funding would also come from the grant, with no city cost.
Resolve 26-295 accepting up to $6,000 from Johns Hopkins University as a partner on an NIH ARISE grant to increase PrEP access had its first reading and was referred to the Government Operations Committee meeting of October 19.
