(d) Encourage community mobilization to create enabling environments that support HIV prevention by actively involving community members in efforts to raise HIV awareness, building support for and involvement in HIV prevention efforts, motivating individuals to work to end HIV stigma and encouraging HIV risk reduction. (e) Create a specific engagement plan for communities of color which includes anti- stigma approaches and activities for populations which are in alignment with the Epidemiologic Overview in the “Oregon Integrated HIV Prevention and Care Plan, 2017-2021.” (f) Administer harm reduction efforts, if permitted and based on local need, to reduce the risk of transmission of HIV/Hepatitis C, such as, but not limited to, operation of a Syringe Service Program, the purchase and distribution of wound care supplies, sharps containers, and clean supplies used for injection drug use; however, purchase of syringes (needles), cookers and naloxone is not allowable with these funds.
