    The document outlines a Request for Information (RFI) issued by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) regarding a planned funding opportunity focused on addressing the HIV epidemic among children, adolescents, and families in the North West Province of South Africa. The activity is expected to operate under a cooperative agreement with a budget not exceeding $20 million, primarily targeting local entities. USAID seeks feedback on a draft Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to help shape the final proposal, emphasizing the commitment to local ownership and capacity-building within South African institutions. Key objectives include increasing access to comprehensive healthcare services, improving local partner capacities for program implementation, and developing sustainable social service frameworks to support affected populations. The document provides epidemiological context, highlighting the extensive impacts of HIV in South Africa, particularly among youth, and outlines government responses, including various strategies crafted to reduce transmission rates and improve support systems. Overall, the RFI process facilitates stakeholder engagement and aims to enhance community-led responses to public health challenges in the region.
