PA DOH Case Management

This virtual training series, developed for medical case managers in Pennsylvania’s Ryan White Part B-funded organizations, provides comprehensive education on core topics such as HIV fundamentals, trauma-informed care, public benefits, special populations, and behavioral health.

Designed to strengthen the HIV Care Continuum, the curriculum emphasizes client engagement, treatment adherence, effective care planning, and the development of trauma-informed, person-centered approaches. Through ongoing education and technical assistance, participants will also explore emerging issues, regulatory requirements, and essential resources to better support people living with HIV.

Although the content is designed for medical case managers, all HIV care and prevention professionals in Pennsylvania, are welcome to attend.
