The BPHC Prevention Community of Practice (CoP) provides an opportunity for Federally Qualified Community Health Centers (FQHCs) in Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington, DC, to learn from each other regarding increasing HIV testing, diagnosis and prevention, including the provision of HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). Health Resources and Services Administration's (HRSA) Bureau of Primary Health Care (BPHC) and HIV/AIDS Bureau support this initiative to partner with Ending the HIV Epidemic-funded FQHCs in the MAAETC region.
