Grant Description: The purpose of this program is to support the provision of comprehensive, community-based HIV/AIDS services in Zambia. The successful grantee will utilize a community-based strategy to deliver HIV/AIDS services in order to maximally reach entire communities while engaging them adequately to promote substantial ownership of the program. These services should be closely linked with facilities offering healthcare and HIV-related support. The emphasis of the program will be on tailoring the way interventions are delivered to each individual, couple and family in a household, and working systematically with all households within the defined community area. The grantee will provide: confidential counseling and testing in the home; information on HIV to enhance knowledge about HIV transmission and preventing transmission, supply items such as condoms to facilitate behavior change; refer patients for anti-retroviral therapy (ART), counseling on ART adherence, and TB treatment with Directly Observed Therapy (Short-Course), or DOTS; and/or refer patients to community health centers for the prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT). This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) builds on previous PEPFAR support under the cooperative agreement: "Rural, Confidential HIV Counseling, Testing and Related interventions in the Southern Province of the Republic of Zambia", where approximately 1,693,226 people live, and also serves to ensure continuity of comprehensive HIV/AIDS services to an existing pool of clients receiving HIV/AIDS care, support and treatment. The partner must work in close collaboration with the District Health Management Teams (DHMT) in the current site (Mazabuka, population 285,000) and expand to Monze (population 240,000) and Sinazongwe (population 120,375) Districts, and potentially others as appropriate.
