Additionally, it assesses gaps in service, develops resources, and collaborates with other community agencies. HIV Prevention programs in Stark and Carroll Counties are a collaborative effort with the Regional HIV Prevention Community Advisory Group. Care programs are a collaborative effort of the Ryan White C.A.R.E. Consortium and Trillium Family Solutions and include Stark, Carroll, Harrison, Holmes, Tuscarawas and Wayne Counties.
