Overview Narrative

The goal of this project is to reduce HIV and TB vulnerability and prevent new HIV infections at St Albans Prison, a male correctional facility managed by the Department of Correctional Services in Port Elizabeth, Eastern Cape Province. Through this project, South African Partners will provide voluntary and confidential HIV counseling and testing, STI and TB screening; implement Prevention with Positives activities; increase awareness of safer sex and drug use among inmates and correctional staff; strengthen referral to care treatment and support; and develop and evaluate a demonstration HIV prevention project at a male correction facility. The goal of the project is to increase the number of offenders and correctional staff at St Albans that receive annual HIV, TB and STI testing and/or screening by 80%. When possible, indicators will be internationally recognized and derived from the PEPFAR Indicator Reference Guide. The project aligns with South Africa’s NSP and Partnership Framework, supporting country-led initiatives aimed at primary prevention of HIV infections, particularly among key populations. Education and advocacy for increased HIV testing and prevention services for prisoners will be conducted to addressing key drivers of HIV infection and focus on areas of highest transmission such as male-male sex and injection drug use in correctional services. To promote sustainability and the leveraging of resources, best practices and lessons learned from this project will be disseminated through stakeholders meeting and ongoing communication with the departments of Health and Correctional Services to help inform future HIV prevention efforts correctional settings.

Overview Narrative

In collaboration with the Department of Social Development (DSD) a solicitation for this activity will be done using the AIDSTAR IQC mechanism. The AIDSTAR IQC mechanism will be used to select a service provider that will provide long and short-term technical assistance and program implementation support in specialized technical areas to strengthen the social service workforce (both professionals and practitioners). The social welfare workforce is critical to child protection and the ability of vulnerable children to access key health and social welfare services. Social service professionals, working closely with the justice system, are critical in reducing child abuse neglect and exploitation. This Task Order (TO) will strengthen the most important workforce, those who care for and protect the most vulnerable children. One of the key features of this TO will be to provide support to DSD to develop a strong human resource information system that will allow for targeted support to the geographic areas with the highest burden of orphans and vulnerable children and other specific vulnerable populations of greatest need. A task order for competition among the IQC prime contractors will be issued and a TO awarded that will be directly managed by USAID/South Africa. This TO will provide support to DSD using a range of strategies for planning the social welfare workforce, and developing and supporting the workforce using models of human and institutional capacity development. It is expected that this will be a $10 million award and will focus on innovative solutions for human resource development issues in the social welfare workforce area. A Scope of Work will be developed in collaboration with DSD and competed amongst the AIDSTAR 2 prime contractors by June 2012.

Narrative:

This new award will be a continuation of the work being done under the Water and Development Alliance (WADA), which is a partnership between USAID and Coca Cola Company. This project will address community water needs in targeted areas of high HIV prevalence. The partner will work with vulnerable communities to provide appropriate mapping of access to water and sanitation points. This addresses challenges that are characterized by unavailability of clean safe drinking water, and limited access to sustainable and safe potable water. The project will also train community healthcare workers on basic WASH skills at household level, and link to education and training. This will improve quality of life through sanitation and access to water. The project will also support the appropriate infant feeding for mothers who choose replacement feeding.
