    HIV Surveillance Report: Special Report; Number 34: Data Tables: Quality of Life and HIV Stigma—Indicators for the National HIV/AIDS Strategy 2022–2025, by Priority Populations, CDC Medical Monitoring Project, 2017–2021 Data Cycles

  • Description:
    The National HIV/AIDS Strategy (NHAS) outlines a national plan for ending the HIV epidemic in the United States by 2030, including a 75% reduction in new HIV infections by 2025 and a 90% reduction by 2030. NHAS includes 4 goals, 2 of which focus on improving HIV-related health outcomes among people with HIV (PWH) and reducing disparities and health inequities among PWH.

    NHAS underscores the importance of addressing social determinants of health (SDOH) to decrease disparities in HIV clinical outcomes and improve quality of life among PWH. In 2022, the NHAS Federal Implementation Plan 2022–2025 expanded the indicators of progress towards meeting national HIV prevention and care goals to include Quality of Life measures from the CDC Medical Monitoring Project (MMP). To date, NHAS indicators that are monitored using MMP data include the following:

    • Quality of life: NHAS recommends addressing domains of physical, mental, and emotional health-as well as structural factors-to improve HIV clinical outcomes, address disparities, and improve quality of life among PWH. The national quality of life indicators include: Physical health: Self-rated health is the indicator measure for physical health among people with

    diagnosed HIV; Mental/emotional health: The indicator for mental or emotional health is unmet need for services from a mental health professional, among persons with diagnosed HIV with a need for mental health services; Structural factors, including subsistence needs: Hunger/food insecurity, unemployment, and unstable housing or homelessness represent the national indicators for this domain.

    • HIV stigma: The vision of NHAS is for every person with HIV to live free from stigma and discrimination.

    The NHAS indicator for stigma is a multidimensional measure of HIV stigma among persons with diagnosed HIV.

    More information on these indicators, including justification for including these measures in the national strategy and related targets, is available in the National HIV/AIDS Strategy Federal Implementation Plan 2022–2025.

    NHAS prioritizes five priority populations that are disproportionately impacted by HIV to focus efforts and resources to achieve the greatest impact. These populations are: • Gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM), in particular Black, Latino, and American Indian/Alaska Native men; • Black women; • Transgender women; • Youth aged 13–24 years; and, • People who inject drugs.

    The purpose of this report is to provide annual estimates from MMP for each of these indicators during 2017–2021, by NHAS priority populations. Estimates are presented for all NHAS priority populations, except for American Indian/Alaska Native MSM due to a limited sample size. Because MMP data are only available for persons with diagnosed HIV aged ≥ 18 years, estimates among youths are presented for persons with diagnosed HIV aged 18–24 years. All measures are available for 2017–2021, except for HIV stigma, self-rated health, and unstable housing or homelessness, for which data collection began during the 2018 MMP data cycle.
