This guide developed by AED, is intended to help HIV prevention community
planning groups (CPGs) design, implement, update, and manage useful needs
assessments. It will also be instrumental in: (1) Furnishing the information

practices from 17 states and includes strategies for supporting the community
planning process as well as innovative approaches to HIV prevention program
service delivery. Each example provides a program description and contact
information. These practices were identified during the CDC External Review of
health department HIV prevention cooperative agreement applications and
comprehensive plans. NASTAD and AED produced the document, with funding from
CDC.

user-friendly information on HIV prevention community planning to prepare CPG
members to be effective in carrying out their community planning roles and
responsibilities. It is not, however, designed to provide in-depth information
on the specialized planning processes used in specific project areas and CPGs
(for example, how the community planning process works in a particular city or
state, how decision-making is carried out, or which priority-setting approach to
use).

(October 2000)
Available at
www.hivaidsta.org
This document developed by AED, is meant to serve as a reference guide and
workbook for HIV prevention community planning groups as they perform the
following tasks: Develop a clear priority setting process that is acceptable to
the community, the health department, and the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) or reviewing and modifying the existing priority setting
processes; Orient new members and health department staff to the priority
setting process; Make explicit the factors used to set priorities; and Document
the evidence used to justify decisions.
The guide is designed for individuals and committees who set HIV prevention
priorities. Each chapter includes a list of priority setting tasks to complete
with the relevant portion of a priority-setting scenario to illustrate the
process. At the end of each chapter worksheets are provided to help you carry
out the tasks.
Self-Assessment Tool for HIV Prevention Community Planning (May 1995)
Available at

This assessment tool developed by AED, is designed to accomplish two specific
objectives: (1) To provide community planning groups with a practical,
easy-to-use- instrument to assess and enhance their community planning process;
and (2) To assist community planning groups in identifying their needs for
technical assistance. The individual sections of this assessment tool correspond
to major planning tasks as defined in the Guidance on HIV Prevention Community
Planning. Each section can be used independently — if your CPG wishes to assess
progress in areas related to PIR, the CPG needs to complete only that section of
the tool. Or your CPG can complete all the sections to explore the major
components of the overall planning process.
Understanding the Basics: HIV Prevention Community Planning
Available from NMAC

What Intervention Studies Say About Effectiveness: A Resource for HIV
Prevention Community Planning Groups (May 1996)
Available at
www.hivaidsta.org
This document developed by AED, has been prepared specifically to help planning
groups in using behavioral science more effectively. The document focuses on
demonstrated effectiveness of interventions – one of the core considerations in
HIV prevention community planning. The studies included in the document are not
the only important studies, nor do they provide a comprehensive view of the
evaluation literature. They do, however, represent a range of interventions, a
diversity of target populations, and a mix of research designs. Examples have
been selected for their utility to planning group deliberations and for their
evaluation approach.
Compendium of HIV
Prevention Interventions with Evidence of Effectiveness (November 1999)
The Compendium was developed for prevention service providers, planners, and
others who require science-based interventions that work. This document provides
summaries of state-of-the-science interventions with evidence of reducing sex-
and/or drug-related risks and the rate of HIV/’STD infections. These
interventions have been effective with a variety of populations, e.g., clinic
patients, heterosexual men and women, high-risk youth, incarcerated populations,
injection drug users, and men who have sex with men. They have been delivered to
individuals, groups, and communities in settings such as storefronts, gay bars,
health centers, housing communities, and schools. To be included in the
Compendium, an intervention had to come from a behavioral or social study that
had both intervention and control/comparison groups and positive results for
behavioral or health outcomes.
