Focus Area
01
Strengthen peer support
Patient/peer support groups are traditionally identified as important groups for education and awareness. The grant aims to strengthen and enhance patient support services and encourage peer support to link patients and those at-risk to screening and care.
02
Improve hepatitis B awareness and literacy
Understanding of hepatitis B, screening and intervention options can ultimately improve disease management. Increasing awareness and in-depth understanding of hepatitis B can also help to eliminate stigma and discrimination related to hepatitis B.
03
Innovation
As consumers’ information-seeking behaviors are evolving, the grant seeks innovative approaches to increase disease awareness outside of clinical settings.
