On November 28, 2018, the United States government announced the investment of $100 million, through PEPFAR, to address key gaps toward achieving HIV epidemic control and ensuring justice for children, including by leveraging the unique capacities and compassion of faith-based organizations and communities.
The Faith and Community Initiative seeks to:
-
Engage communities of faith to reach men and children with testing and services, understand the epidemic, and raise community awareness through:
-
Faith community structures; and
-
Existing and additional FBO partners.
-
-
Strengthen justice for children through:
-
Community leaders (e.g., faith, traditional, school , civic);
-
Faith & traditional organizations/structures; and
-
Justice sector, and those who work with the Justice sector.
-

​
To maintain the gains for HIV prevention and control, global faith leaders also developed Messages of Hope for COVID-19. While these messages were developed with the aim of serving populations affected by HIV/AIDS, they are generic and can be adapted for use in other settings.
