CSTE HIV-STI-OOJ Contact Board
Facilitating information sharing across HIV and STI prevention programs at state, Tribal, local, and territorial (STLT) health departments.
Overview
The Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists’ (CSTE) HIV-STI-out of jurisdiction (OOJ) Contact Board was developed as a resource for state, Tribal, local, and territorial (STLT) jurisdictions to facilitate data sharing for HIV and STI surveillance. The content of the CSTE HIV-STI-OOJ Contact Board is maintained by STLT jurisdictions. Please be sure to regularly update any incomplete or inaccurate information.
The CSTE HIV-STI-OOJ Contact Board integrates, and on August 1, 2025, will officially replace the following systems: the CSTE HIV Contact Board, CSTE STI Surveillance Contact Board, and the CDC Interstate Communication Control Records (ICCR). To maintain programmatic continuity for interstate communications among HIV and STI prevention programs, your jurisdiction must take action by July 31, 2025.

General Info
Developed by CSTE as a resource for STLT jurisdictions, the CSTE HIV-STI-OOJ Contact Board facilitates information sharing for HIV and STI programs in health departments. Following the launch, the content will be maintained by STLT jurisdictions.
Each individual on the contact board is listed on their jurisdiction’s board, with unique login credentials assigned based on their email address. Individuals can have multiple roles within HIV and/or STI programs at STLT health departments. If a user conducts OOJ activities, their roles and responsibilities can be detailed in the contact board (in the “Jurisdiction OOJ Activities” table under “My Jurisdiction”).
