  • Name the components of the HNS model.
  • Describe how navigators work as part of a professional team.
  • Identify the skills necessary to support a client through the HIV care and prevention continua.

  • Community-Based Organizations.
  • Health Departments.
  • Health Care Organizations implementing HIV programs and services.
  • General navigation programs that seek to incorporate HNS as an additional component to their existing navigation services.
