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.
Years of mechanism: 2008 2009
Integrated Activity Flag: This activity is linked to Activity ID 5296.08.
Summary: In Fiscal Year (FY) 2008, Population Services International (PSI) will continue to provide mobile
voluntary counseling and testing (VCT) services and activities in partnership with local organizations. These
local organizations will promote the VCT services for the scheduled VCT days and PSI/H will provide
technical support, as well as carry out the VCT and referrals for care and support. PSI will scale up its VCT
media campaign to reach the target audiences.
Background: During COP 2007, PSI was responsible for coordinating the training of counseling staff and
pre and post test counseling sessions at the Haitian National Police Academy clinic as well as developing a
mobile testing team. In 2006, 1,615 clients used mobile VCT services during a six-month pilot phase. Of
the new police recruits, 1,330 were counseled and tested. PSI increased local capacity to provide quality
VCT services by training 10 counselors and seven police peer educators. In FY 2008 PSI will emphasize
mobile VCT activities.
Activity 1: PSI will continue to increase the number of individuals who access mobile VCT services. The
mobile VCT team consists of at least three counselors, two laboratory technicians and one driver/assistant.
PSI is responsible for ensuring that members of the team are adequately trained for their respective jobs.
PSI will work with INHSAC to provide refresher courses for their mobile team members. In FY 2008, at
least 3,000 clients will receive mobile VCT (target groups include youth, couples, and vulnerable groups).
PSI will develop tracking and follow up procedures to ensure that all persons identified as being positive are
enrolled in a Palliative Care program. This will include the provision of an escort for the patient to the
preferred Palliative Care site. At least 90% of patients who test positive for HIV will be referred and followed
up at the appropriate palliative care and/or anti-retroviral (ARV) services site.
Activity 2: In FY 2008, PSI will increase the number of individuals reached through VCT communications
and outreach programs. PSI will continue to design media campaigns and promotional materials (TV, radio,
posters, brochures etc) for target populations.
