The Developmental Core leadership congratulates the community organizations in the Chicago area selected for the TC CFAR Community Dissemination Awards’ (CDA) December 2024 – April 2025 funding cycle. These awards support dissemination of HIV research and engagement between community members and investigators.
“Ever since the TC CFAR was established, the center has made it a priority to help community organizations promote their HIV work with these awards,” said Kathryn Macapagal, PhD, co-director of the TC CFAR’s Developmental Core. “The CDA awardees proposed creative mechanisms to disseminate HIV research and foster engagement between their community organizations and faculty, and with members of the community. We look forward to supporting their events taking place over the next few months.”
Community organizations providing HIV services in Chicagoland are eligible for these funds, which back a one-time activity or an ongoing program of engagement within a one-year period.
