NH Integrated HIV Plan and Workgroups
Information and resources regarding the New Hampshire Integrated HIV Plan (NH IHP), which provides partners with goals and objectives impacting HIV and related issues, and the NH IHP workgroups, which lead the execution, review, and updates of the current IHP.
The New Hampshire Integrated HIV Plan (NH IHP) provides NH's community and state partners with goals and objectives impacting HIV and related issues. The NH IHP workgroups lead the execution, review, and updates of the current IHP. These workgroups are made up of community members, healthcare professionals, case managers, people with lived experiences, community-based organizations, and state employees.
For the first time, the NH IHP is a working document. This allows it to be updated or changed during this time frame (currently 2022 - 2026) if the goals and objectives do not meet the needs or outcomes as determined by the IHP workgroups and stakeholders (partners).
Workgroup Leaders
The NH IHP leadership roles include,
- Two (2) state employees are the point persons for the NH IHP efforts.
- Each workgroup has both a Community Co-Chair and State Co-Chair.
- For the 2022-2026 NH IHP, there are four (4) workgroups. These workgroups are Prevent, Diagnose, Treat and Respond.
Responsibilities
- Show up, care and be active in meetings.
- Make sure lived experience is included in decisions made by each workgroup.
- Think about what will increase equity.
- Talk about what you can do to meet the goals and objectives of the NH IHP.

- Connect with community partners to meet the goals and objectives of the NH IHP.
Meetings
Meetings are held at least every other month, or at least six (6) times in a calendar year (January - December). The schedule for the meetings is decided by each workgroup and can be found on the HPG Calendar.
