What is Ending the HIV Epidemic: A Plan for America?

Ending the HIV Epidemic: A Plan for America (EHE) is a bold plan that aims to end the HIV epidemic in the United States by 2030. In the State of the Union Address on February 5, 2019, President Donald J. Trump announced his administration’s goal to end the HIV epidemic in the United States within 10 years. EHE is the operational plan developed by agencies across the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to pursue that goal.

The plan leverages critical scientific advances in HIV prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and outbreak response.

In its first phase, the initiative is focusing on areas where HIV transmission occurs most frequently, thus providing 57 geographic focus areas with additional resources to develop and implement locally tailored EHE plans.

Missouri is a Phase 1 Jurisdiction.
