CBAM’s mobile clinic team continues its conduct of the INTEGRA study bringing treatment for opioid use disorder, as well as HIV prevention and treatment, directly to those who need it. This past week, we were at the LA Grand Hotel. The Hotel is currently a Project Room Key site, a collaborative effort by the State, County and the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority to secure hotel and motel rooms for vulnerable people experiencing homelessness. It provides a way for people who don’t have a home to stay inside to prevent the spread of COVID-19, but it also provides an excellent opportunity for us to bring much needed care to this community. For more information on the INTEGRA study, visit the HIV Prevention Trials Network website.
