Evaluator - Remote within CA (Biotech)
SUMMARY
The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) Office of AIDS (OA) is recruiting an outstanding candidate to serve as the evaluator for an important new HIV prevention activity. The project evaluator will work on the HIV C-CORE team to develop and implement methods to evaluate HIV cluster detection and response (CDR) activities in the State of California. Cluster detection and response is a strategy to use public health data to identify communities affected by rapid HIV transmission. CDPH and their partners then aim to address gaps in prevention and care at individual, network, and systems levels. This HIV C-CORE team works together to develop best practices in cluster detection and response. This team is responsible for coordinating, presenting and reporting CDR activities to local partners, stakeholders, and federal partners including the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
The Evaluator will lead the development of the CDR evaluation plan and strategy, including metrics, logic model, data collection tools and protocols, with support from the Prevention Evaluation and Monitoring Section Chief and CDR Epidemiologist. The Evaluator will gather and summarize quantitative and qualitative data to enhance understanding of individual, network, and system level characteristics of HIV clusters in California and make recommendations to improve and close gaps in California's capacity to detect and respond to clusters. The Evaluator is also responsible for submitting CDC cluster report forms, as well as identifying and adapting promising practices from other funded jurisdictions. The evaluator will contribute to analyses, presentations, reports, and publications related to CDR activities and evaluation.
All CDPH employees perform work that is of the utmost importance, where each employee is important in supporting and promoting an environment of equity, diversity, and inclusivity, essential to the delivery of the department's mission. All employees are valued and should understand that their contributions and the contributions of their team members derive from different cultures, backgrounds, and life experiences, supporting innovations in public health services and programs for California. This position supports the CDPH mission and strategic plan by advancing health equity and strategic planning goals and objectives and to promote recognition and reduction of the burden of infection among California's most vulnerable populations through changes in workplace culture and practice.
