The idea for this monograph came about as grantees in Year 3 (August 2003) of the Health Resources and Services Administration, HIV/AIDS Bureau, Special Projects of National Significance (SPNS) U.S.–Mexico Border Health Initiative began to contemplate the end of the 5-year initiative. The idea of a monograph on lessons learned was first raised in a dissemination committee. In a January 2004 meeting, grantees enthusiastically agreed to contribute to the writing project.

The primary purpose of this monograph is to add information to the HIV/AIDS literature on what was learned in the course of the five SPNS projects and the work of the Evaluation Center during the 2000–2005 initiative. To facilitate consistency of content and organization, contributors were given a suggested topic outline, which will be apparent to readers in the organization of most chapters. Even so, readers will find that each chapter reflects the unique voice and perspective of its authors.
