مستخلص: This study examines implementation of the Ryan White CARE Act (RWCA) in two Title I jurisdictions in order to better understand the participation of the Latino community in the Planning Council decision-making and allocation processes. Data were obtained from two Eligible Metropolitan Areas (EMAs) through surveys and a total of 27 in-depth, in-person interviews with executive directors and HIV/AIDS service staff from 14 Latino community-based organizations, Planning Council Chairs, RWCA Title I Administrators, and HRSA Project Officers. Results provide insight into the factors that facilitate or hinder effective participation of the Latino community in the RWCA process and highlight the need for support in the building of infrastructure and capacity within Latino agencies. This analysis also contributes to the growing literature addressing the processes of coalition-building. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
