Overview Narrative

The aim for this project is to provide comprehensive HIV prevention services in six discrete mining communities in Mpumalanga province. Mpumalanga reportedly has the second highest provincial HIV prevalence in South Africa. The goal of the project is to reduce the number of new HIV infections in this community by a comprehensive HIV prevention service that includes behavioural, structural and biomedical strategies. The project objective is to reach a minimum of 80% of the community with a combination of interventions which include HIV training, HCT, behavioral change, referral to MMC and linkages to treatment for HIV, TB, STI and drug rehabilitation where appropriate. To achieve this reach, an innovative incentivized field marketing approach is proposed to gain community participation via word-of-mouth marketing and social entrepreneurship. Use will be made of new locally developed bio-metric technology to gather information anonymously on HIV status and to link it to changes in patterns of knowledge, attitude and practices (KAP) over time. Based on this information, it is intended to adjust the interventions to achieve the optimum reduction of the number of new HIV infections in this community over the 5-year period of the project. The project has a strong emphasis on developing indigenous capacity and coordination with South African, United States and international agencies. Over time, the functions will be transferred on a managed basis to the community and health systems so as to ensure sustainability on the conclusion of the project.

Narrative:

In South Africa most men are not circumcised and if they are traditionally circumcised they are often not fully circumcised (and thus have no protection). As an HIV prevention intervention medical male circumcision requires a number of additional interventions in order to ensure it is effective. Firstly people have to know about MMC and men have to present themselves to the appropriate services. Post circumcision they have to remain abstinent until the wound is completely healed and then they have to continue to have safer sex for the rest of their lives. HIV Managed Care’s social mobilisation intervention will work with male-dominated sectors (e.g., mining, transportation, and others) to provide education about MMC (both men and women) and establish direct link between mobilization and service delivery. HIV Managed Care has a proven track record of working with businesses to establish HIV prevention, care and treatment services, the MMC funds will be used to leverage those existing partnerships as well as expand to other areas. HIV Managed Care will work closely with service delivery partners in designated areas to ensure linkage between mobilization activities and service delivery. This activity is entirely PEPFAR funded.

Narrative:

The target area of the project is six discrete communities totaling about 85,000 people situated in settlements adjacent to large mining activities in the Mpumalanga province of South Africa. The overall project goal to reach 80% of the target population with prevention interventions, including HIV training, HCT, behavioral change, referral to MMC and linkages to treatment for HIV, TB, STI and drug rehabilitation where appropriate. Annual targets for this project include conducting 19,500 HIV tests. Additionally, the 240 Peer Educators (PEs) will reach at least 4,800 individuals with HIV prevention messages, including referral to MMC services being offered by CDC-funded partners in the province. Additionally, those testing HIV-positive will be referred to HIV treatment services and receive a minimum package of Prevention with Positive services.

Overview Narrative

The goal of this program is to increase knowledge of HIV status through increased access to HCT services using mobile vans and to link HCT services to other clinical and community HIV prevention programs for a comprehensive care package. The program is targeting youth: 60% females and 40% males aged 15 – 29 and 10% children less than 15 years of age in Gauteng and Limpopo.This program directly supports the prevention goal of the PF, including addressing female vulnerability to HIV and STIs by reducing incidence in the number of sexual partners. It is similarly supportive of the NSP goal to reduce new HIV infections by 50% and ensuring that 100% of the people diagnosed with HIV infection are linked to appropriate care, treatment and other support services. For sustainability HCT test kits will be obtained from the SAG health facilities in the supported districts. Shout It Now will procure medical consumables and HCT test kits (buffer stock only) for effective and safe clinical HIV testing. Shout it now will ensure that all program staff is trained by the approved external service provider on Quality Assurance to ensure quality of rapid HIV testing in line with the SAG HIV Policy guidelines. The project will contribute towards creation of a cadre of trained professionals for seamless transition to SAG management. Shout It Now will ensure all program activities, outputs, outcomes and impact are tracked effectively and generate monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, and annual reports. Shout IT Now will integrate data systems to avoid duplication with SAG systems. Data systems will be electronic in order to permit timely reporting of all activities and outcomes.
