Community Engagement Group

Committee Charge:

1. Educate Consumers

Educate/train consumers about the HIV Planning Group’s local HIV services planning process and prepare them for and support them in increased involvement throughout the Planning Group process: committees, task forces, working groups, and other opportunities, as well as general Planning Group membership.
Serve as mentors to newly involved consumers.

2. Increase Consumer Participation

Increase the level and diversity of consumer involvement, including members from underserved and underrepresented communities.
Represent the needs of all consumers, including those unable to participate in meetings.
Provide linkages to regional and population-specific consumer groups and ensure communication between those groups and the Community Engagement Group.
Identify and seek to overcome barriers to consumer participation.

3. Represent Consumer Needs Throughout the Planning Group Process

Provide consumer representation on Planning Group committees, task forces, etc. and ensure the flow of information from those groups to the Community Engagement Group.
Encourage maximum consumer involvement in the Priority Setting & Resource Allocation Committee and in other established venues for the annual priority setting and budget allocations process; the Community Engagement Group will not develop a separate set of budget recommendations.
Serve as a venue for providing consumer feedback regarding Planning Group issues.
