PEPFAR's annual planning process is done either at the country (COP) or regional level (ROP).
PEPFAR's programs are implemented through implementing partners who apply for funding based on PEPFAR's published Requests for Applications.
Since 2010, PEPFAR COPs have grouped implementing partners according to an organizational type. We have retroactively applied these classifications to earlier years in the database as well.
Also called "Strategic Areas", these are general areas of HIV programming. Each program area has several corresponding budget codes.
Specific areas of HIV programming. Budget Codes are the lowest level of spending data available.
Expenditure Program Areas track general areas of PEPFAR expenditure.
Expenditure Sub-Program Areas track more specific PEPFAR expenditures.
Object classes provide highly specific ways that implementing partners are spending PEPFAR funds on programming.
Cross-cutting attributions are areas of PEPFAR programming that contribute across several program areas. They contain limited indicative information related to aspects such as human resources, health infrastructure, or key populations programming. However, they represent only a small proportion of the total funds that PEPFAR allocates through the COP process. Additionally, they have changed significantly over the years. As such, analysis and interpretation of these data should be approached carefully. Learn more
Beneficiary Expenditure data identify how PEPFAR programming is targeted at reaching different populations.
Sub-Beneficiary Expenditure data highlight more specific populations targeted for HIV prevention and treatment interventions.
PEPFAR sets targets using the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) System - documentation for which can be found on PEPFAR's website at https://www.pepfar.gov/reports/guidance/. As with most data on this website, the targets here have been extracted from the COP documents. Targets are for the fiscal year following each COP year, such that selecting 2016 will access targets for FY2017. This feature is currently experimental and should be used for exploratory purposes only at present.
Result: Improved Psychosocial Support to HIV-infected mothers and their families.The purpose of the
program is to provide funding to technical and organizational capacity building support for the expansion of
psychosocial support services and development of peer counseling programs for HIV-infected women and
their families.
Inputs
Through a cooperative agreement with Pathfinder, the USG is providing technical assistance and funding to
civil society organizations to strengthen counseling and other psychosocial support services for HIV-infected
women and their families.
Activities/Outputs
Three to five selected civil society organizations (including at least one FBO) will establish counseling and
psychosocial care services in underserved (currently without non-governmental, community-based or faith-
based support services for PLWHAs) areas. Services will include counseling and support groups for HIV +
women from the PMTCT program and their families (peer counseling and mentoring ("Mothers-to-Mothers-
to-Be"), drug adherence counseling, nutrition counseling, supportive counseling and "positive living" support
groups). Pathfinder will be responsible for awarding and managing grants and providing technical
assistance and organizational capacity development to the selected organizations. Pathfinder will also
provide training and on-going support to the selected civil society organizations receiving funds in general
management and administration, financial management, supervision, monitoring and evaluation and other
areas identified.
Outcomes
The expected benefit will be an increase in utilization of PMTCT services, including HIV testing, correct use
of ART, safe early childhood feeding and access to continued care and support for infected women and
Result: promoted and integrated abstinence and partner reduction in BCC programs and messages YOHO:
Promotion of abstinence/be faithful programs. YOHO is a well-known youth-run organization dedicated to a
number of key health issues facing youth, including HIV/AIDS. HHS/CDC/BOTUSA has provided funding for
many years to facilitate technical assistance for their various outreach and IEC projects on HIV/AIDS as well
as for institutional strengthening. Input: The USG provides funding for this project. Activities/Outputs: In
FY05, these funds will be used to enhance YOHO's work on abstinence. Activities will include training other
youth groups, schools, and faith-based organizations in ways to reach youth and deliver messages about
abstinence to them and their parents. They will also include strengthening the abstinence messages and
activities in YOHO's current programs, including their annual arts festival and bus/taxi outreach programs.
Many of YOHO's activities are "edutainment"-based (music, theater) and thus reach large numbers of youth.
Part of the salaries of YOHO staff and YOHO's internal capacity building to better serve as a resource on
abstinence and abstinence programs will also be covered with these funds. Outcome: YOHO's capacity to
work and train on abstinence will be strengthened, and large numbers of youth will be reached with
abstinence messages and programs.
