title = "Commentary: The importance of demonstrations in developing adolescent HIV care models",
author = "Katherine Marconi and Richard Moore",
note = "Funding Information: In a recent report, Fostering Rapid Advances in Health Care Learning from System Demonstrations, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) states that demonstration projects are vehicles to foster innovation and create success [1] . Whereas the IOM discussion of demonstration projects focuses on general health systems interventions, a similar argument can be made for population-specific health service demonstration projects. This supplement to the Journal of Adolescent Medicine reports on five grants funded by the U.S. Departments of Health and Human Services (HHS), Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), and Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The grants are part of the Special Projects of National Significance (SPNS) program, which is the research and development arm of the Ryan White Comprehensive AIDS Resources Emergency Act (P.L. 101-381) as amended by the Ryan White CARE Act Amendments of 1996 and 2000 (P.L. 104-146 and P.L. 106-345). SPNS is unique to the Ryan White CARE Act because it supports time-limited demonstration and evaluation grants, rather than solely HIV service delivery. SPNS grantees must: assess the effectiveness of models for the care and treatment of individuals with HIV disease, evaluate the innovative nature of the proposed activities, and disseminate results to other providers of HIV care.
