Ambassador’s PEPFAR Small Grants Program POL/ECON, U.S. Embassy Yaounde

archived

The U.S. Embassy in Yaounde-Cameroon, Political and Economic Section is seeking proposals for projects that address challenges in providing community based prevention, care, and treatment services to infants, children and adolescents infected and affected by HIV/AIDS. The objective is to support increase in the number of children testing for HIV, linking those diagnosed HIV-positive to treatment, and ensuring that they stay on treatment. Additionally, recipient organizations would be engaged in encouraging and supporting retention for mothers and children enrolled in ART in order to achieve viral suppression, strengthening parent/caregiver capacity to advocate for infants, children, and adolescents with HIV, as well as supporting adolescents transitioning to adult HIV programs. We will only consider supporting projects that will be implemented in Yaounde and Douala Health Districts. Proposals can target one or more Health Districts in these cities.
