N/A

## What the grant funds

The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to support a study to understand the infant feeding preferences, practices, and outcomes for people with HIV (PWH) in the United States. Improvements in HIV antiretroviral therapy have led to reductions in perinatal HIV transmission, opening the door to shared decision making by pregnant people with HIV and their medical providers regarding breastfeeding of infants; however clinical, behavioral, and social factors associated with infant feeding practices in this population remain poorly understood and require further elucidation. There is also an interest in understanding health outcomes of infants breastfed by persons with HIV, and in interventions both to support postpartum PWH to optimize their health and to optimize care for breastfed infants.
