About this archived opportunity

The Award Ceiling for Year 1 is 0 (none). CDC anticipates an Approximate Total Fiscal Year Funding amount of $350,000 for Year 1, subject to the availability of funds. This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) will focus on community engagement and quality improvement of HIV/AIDS Services in Sierra Leone. The purpose of this program is to use standardized data collection tools to conduct community engagement and quality improvement of HIV/AIDS services in approximately 96 PEPFAR service sites across 7 districts in Sierra Leone to promote improvements in the national HIV response. The goal of this program is to improve HIV care and services for a better client experience, and, ultimately, improve health outcomes through PEPFAR site and service monitoring. The objective of the program is to develop and conduct an assessment and reporting community engagement and quality improvement system that reflects clients’ experience in receiving quality HIV services in Sierra Leone and support stakeholder analysis with actionable insights. Areas of focus include HIV prevention services, testing services, treatment services (including linkage, retention, and viral load testing), service provider perceptions, attitudes, practices, and client satisfaction with services provided. You will present and analyze data in close collaboration with community representatives, healthcare providers, clients, government stakeholders, and facility managers to ensure dialogue and participation in identifying improvement opportunities and implementing and monitoring solutions.
