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.

ACTIVITY UNCHANGED FROM COP 2008
SECONDARY CROSS-CUTTING BUDGET ATTRIBUTIONS
Through its existing partnerships in Kilifi District in the Archdiocese of Mombasa, this activity support cross
cutting budget attributions to education through payment of school levies and procurement of school
uniforms for target OVC. The activity will also contribute $19,578 towards education of local communities on
food and nutrition and will also attribute $19,578 of the 2009 budget towards providing support to
community based groups in initiating and managing savings led groups.

2. ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION
Catholic Relief Services' Track 1 orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) Project in Kenya is implemented in
Kilifi District in the Archdiocese of Mombasa (ADM). Kilifi District is along the main transport corridor road
from the port of Mombasa to Central African countries. The highway has thus heavy truck traffic contributing
the HIV prevalence rate of 7% in the District. This situation is also fueled by some cultural practices such as
early marriages, polygamy and wife inheritance. With an overall goal of improving the quality of life of
orphans and vulnerable children (OVC), the program is designed to use a two-fold strategy: to increase the
capacity of communities, families and orphans to respond to the needs of OVC and to increase the
institutional capacity of the partner to deliver high quality and sustainable OVC interventions. This strategy
is in line with the broader Kenya government goal, which seeks to provide OVC with quality care, support
and protection. The program targets 20,000 OVC that were identified in the first year of the project
implementation. Through its HIV/AIDS unit, CRS Kenya provides the technical backstopping and
administrative support for the program while the Archdiocese of Mombasa (through its Parish management
and Village management committees and CBOs on the ground) does the actual activity implementation on
the ground. Services provided via the program include education support, health care, psychosocial
support, food and nutrition, and economic strengthening. The traditional extended family fostering system is
believed to be a more effective way of caring for OVC since their social, cultural and psychological needs
can be met as they interact with different members of the society. The program is designed to use the home
based care approach, in which a packaged care and support service delivery strategy is employed to deliver
various services to orphans and vulnerable children in an affordable, accessible and sustainable way. The
program is designed to use two main strategic objectives: OVC are better able to meet their needs, and
local faith- and community-based organizations (FBOs/CBOs) have a sustained capacity to deliver quality
services to OVC. Under the first strategic objective, the program is designed to ensure that OVC use and
enjoy improved access to required services. These services include community-based child care,
psychosocial and education support, and nutrition. This is attained through community mobilization and
training, and partnership and networking with other key stakeholders on the ground, namely some CBOs,
Parish and Village management committees. Under this strategy, the OVC are identified based on agreed
criteria of selection. Their specific needs are identified and documented and include education, health,
psychosocial and economic needs. Follow up efforts and support is provided through home visits using a
network of 400 volunteer Community Health Workers and 7,480 caregivers who have been keen and active
in this cause. While many of the project activities for FY06 are a continuation of FY05 activities, new
activities have emerged in FY06. For example, owing to OVC completing primary education, it was realized
that there is need for vocational training so that the OVC gain useful skills to help them earn some income
and support their families. Planned training programs for enhancement of partner capacity include training
Trainer of Trainers (TOT) in home based care, basic counseling, basic knowledge on HIV/AIDS
programming, financial management and other relevant areas such as Gender issues and HIV/AIDS. These
trainings are specifically tailored to suit the training needs of the ADM and CBO partner staff. The capacity
building efforts are reinforced with planned periodical supervisory visits at different levels and the provision
of technical and financial support. It is envisioned that through these efforts, the organizations will attain
sustained capacities to provide the much desired quality services for the OVC.
3. CONTRIBUTIONS TO OVERALL PROGRAM AREA
The overall goal of this project is to improve the quality of life of 20,000 OVC and their families through the
provision of compassionate care and social support and also train 2,000 caregivers. Specifically, 20,000
OVC and their family members will demonstrate enhanced medical and psychological well being, will have
the skills necessary to reduce their risk of HIV infection, and 75% of the targeted households and their
families will demonstrate improved quality of life. Local Implementing Partners (LIPs) will strengthen their
capacity to deliver quality care and support to 20,000 OVC and their families.
4. LINKS TO OTHER ACTIVITIES
This activity links to other Ministry of Health facilities, partners in the areas counseling and testing, home
based care and ART.
5. POPULATIONS BEING TARGETED
This activity will target orphans and vulnerable children, their family members and care givers, and will work
through FBO, CBO and other implementing partners.
6. KEY LEGISLATIVE ISSUES ADDRESSED
The key legislative issue being addressed is stigma and discrimination through enhanced medical and
psychological well being, and demonstrated improved quality of life. This activity also addresses the
wraparound issues of food security and economic strengthening.
7. EMPHASIS AREAS
The major area of emphasis is local organization capacity development and the minor area of emphasis is
community mobilization/participation.
