The HIV Complexities Project is led by and for people living with HIV (PLHIV) and complex chronic conditions. The project has a broad reach, and includes:

An online support group for PLHIV with complex chronic conditions. 2026 applications are due May 20!

Resources in English and Spanish in our HIV Complexities Toolkit, for PLHIV and complex chronic conditions like Long COVID and ME/CFS.
Spanish version / Versión en español: El Toolkit del proyecto sobre Las Complejidades del VIH ofrece guías para personas que viven con el VIH y padecen enfermedades crónicas complejas como el COVID persistente o la Encefalomielitis Mialgica/Síndrome de Fatiga Crónica (EM/SFC).

Support for national networks of PLHIV, including the central U.S. Caucus of PLHIV, to strengthen their capacity to include disabling complex chronic conditions in their work.

Curricula for HIV peer navigators, community health workers, providers and advocates, developed in partnership with the Citizens’ Public Health Literacy (CIPHER) project at Columbia University.

Accessible public health education to provide timely, accurate and actionable information on HIV and complex chronic conditions. This includes a series of webinars and more.
Our impact
Feedback from our presentation on “HIV Complexities: Disability, justice, and living through ongoing pandemics” for the NYC HIV Planning Council, 5/14/26:
“Thank you very much for sharing this wonderful presentation with us today. I appreciate the great dedication and the time you are taking with us today. I am learning many things I can integrate into my practice.”
– A registered nurse (RN)
“I was heartened by the explicit link to disability in this talk, because it’s not what I’ve seen in other HIV spaces.” – Community member
