Connection to Care Learning Collaborative (CCLC)

Connection Care Learning Collaborative (CLCC) Capacity Building Program!

CCLC is a capacity building program for Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) in Chicago to increase readiness and service delivery of LGBTQ+ affirming and HIV culturally responsive care services.

Qualified FQHCs receive an unrestricted grant and participate in a 6–8-month series of learning events and one-on-one training sessions. Over the course of the 8-month program, PAT will work with these health centers to increase their capacity for culturally competent HIV care through training, discussions and peer-to-peer sharing. Each FQHC will receive a grant and will determine how to best utilize funds based on their organizational needs.

Following the grant distribution, PAT and AFC will administer a survey to establish center-specific goals and action plans. The FQHCs will also have the opportunity to join a six-part series of learning experiences and regular one-on-one training sessions hosted by PAT and AFC.
