The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) is accepting applications for the fiscal year (FY) 2021 Community-Led Monitoring (CLM) of HIV Services in Sierra Leone to improve HIV care and services for a better client experience, and, ultimately, improve health outcomes through PEPFAR site and service monitoring.
Goal:Â The goal of this program is to improve HIV care and services for a better client experience, and, ultimately, improve health outcomes through PEPFAR site and service monitoring.
The objective of the program is to develop and conduct an assessment and reporting CLM system that reflects clients’ experience in receiving quality HIV services in Sierra Leone and support stakeholder analysis with actionable insights.
Areas of focus include HIV prevention services, testing services, treatment services (including linkage, retention, and viral load testing), service provider perceptions, attitudes, practices, and client satisfaction with services provided. The recipient will present and analyze data in close collaboration with community representatives, healthcare providers, clients, government stakeholders, and facility managers to ensure dialogue and participation in identifying improvement opportunities, and implementing and monitoring solutions.
Specifically, PEPFAR intends to utilize this program to focus on getting input from recipients of HIV services, especially key populations and underserved groups, in a routine and systematic manner that will translate into action and change.
