# Tools to Visualize and Summarize HIV Resources, Disease Burden and EHE Interventions in Miami-Dade County

> **NIH NIH P30** · UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI CORAL GABLES · 2021 · $300,961

## Abstract

This project, which provides foundational work to support the four pillars (Diagnose, Treat, Prevent, and
Respond) of the United States Ending the HIV Epidemic (EHE) plan, brings together Florida’s Miami-Dade
County Department of Health, Miami’s Developmental AIDS Research Center (CHARM; P30MH116867) and
the Miami Center for AIDS Research (CFAR; P30AI073961) to build tools that provide state-of-the-science
visualization and summaries of care resources, disease burden and responses to community-based
interventions that are part of the EHE efforts. Currently, information on disease burden in Miami-Dade, one of
the counties with the highest HIV disease burden in the United States, is years out of date and is summarized
at the county level and for some zip codes. The primary aim of this project is to produce more timely and
complete geographically-focused summaries of disease burden and HIV care success. These disease details
will be integrated with geolocated information on HIV service providers and published as stand-alone
visualizations/summaries and as part of both the public facing SCAN360 website and the Florida Health Charts
web portals.24 SCAN360 already provides interactive maps and other visualizations along with tables
describing cancer disease burden, cancer screening, general health-promoting and disease risk factors, and
demographic information for hundreds of places across Florida. Modern visualization methods such as Value-
Suppressing Uncertainty Palettes will be deployed to help a broad audience including researchers, policy
makers and community members to understand places which need to be targeted for additional EHE efforts.
The second aim is to build researcher- and community-based organization-facing tools to support data-driven
feedback for the development and evaluation of community and neighborhood-specific interventions using
geospatially-driven interventions feedback to address EHE. Dissemination efforts will be assessed using the
Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) and focuses on training and education,
interactive assistance and the development of a learning collaborative with local CBOs and Researchers.
Longer-run dissemination and implementation of these data tools and data-driven feedback (including the
continuation of the learning collaborative) will be provided and documented by the CHARM Methods core (led
by Drs. Balise and Feaster) and trainees associated with CHARM through the newly funded CHANGE T32
Training Program (T32MH126772). This group will lead CHARM’s efforts to sustain the learning collaborative
and ensure adequate adoption of data-driven feedback to effect HIV outcomes in South Florida. In conclusion,
this project describes HIV today and will guide future interventional projects and service provision to the places
with the greatest need in Miami-Dade, and will serve as a proof-of-concept to expand place-specific summaries
for all of Florida.
