Medical\u2010legal partnerships (MLPs) integrate legal services into healthcare settings to address these drivers of health inequities and improve access to HIV prevention and care.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study presents mixed\u2010methods implementation findings from three federally funded MLP initiatives serving PLWH in New York City, Philadelphia, Orlando and San Juan. Implementation was evaluated using the Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance (RE\u2010AIM) framework and the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR), with guidance from Community and Scientific Advisory Boards. Quantitative data were derived from standardized HHLN screening tools, while qualitative interviews with clients, healthcare providers and legal professionals explored implementation experiences, contextual factors and perceived impacts.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Across the three initiatives, 928 participants were enrolled between 2022 and 2026. Core intervention components included: (1) workforce training on HHLNs and legal\u2010health integration; (2) routine legal screening; (3) referral to community\u2010based legal services; and (4) co\u2010located legal clinics and preventive legal education. Common HHLNs included housing instability, benefit denials, immigration concerns, criminal record expungement, advance care planning and discrimination. Implementation demonstrated strong feasibility, acceptability, adoption and cultural responsiveness across sites. Participants described reductions in anxiety, improved confidence, greater trust in healthcare systems and improved engagement in HIV care following legal support. Trainings co\u2010developed with community stakeholders enhanced providers\u2019 understanding of structural determinants and legal remedies, while interdisciplinary collaboration reduced provider burden and strengthened care coordination. RE\u2010AIM findings demonstrated broad reach and organizational adoption, and CFIR analyses identified leadership engagement, organizational readiness and client\u2010provider trust as key implementation facilitators. Cross\u2010study findings informed development of the equity\u2010centred implementation framework for MLP in HIV care, integrating implementation science, health equity and community engagement principles to guide future adaptation and scale\u2010up.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>MLPs are a feasible, equity\u2010focused and scalable strategy for addressing structural barriers that affect HIV outcomes.
