Improving HIV treatment in the Dominican Republic (DR) under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is offering a cooperative agreement to improve HIV treatment in the Dominican Republic under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). The primary objective of this funding opportunity is to enhance access to HIV testing, provide effective HIV treatment and TB preventive therapy, and ensure that individuals living with HIV are retained on lifelong quality treatment to achieve viral suppression. This initiative is particularly important for communities in the Dominican Republic, including Haitian migrants and their descendants, who are significantly affected by HIV. Interested applicants can reach out to the CDC at pepfarfoas@cdc.gov for more information, with an estimated total funding amount of $5,600,000 for the first fiscal year and a deadline for applications set for February 17, 2026.
