##   Strengthening Access to High Quality and Comprehensive Services Targeting Adolescent and Young People in Malawi through Determined, Resilient, AIDS-Free Mentored and Safe (DREAMS) Program under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)

08/03/2021

//

The Award Ceiling for Year 1 is 0 (none). CDC anticipates an Approximate Total Fiscal Year Funding amount of $4,000,000 for Year 1, subject to the availability of funds. The Determined, Resilient, Empowered, AIDS-free, Mentored and Safe (DREAMS) initiative implemented in 15 countries including Malawi aims at reducing new HIV infections among adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) aged 10-24 years. AGYW face an increased vulnerability for HIV acquisition when compared to their peers, globally, young women aged 15-24 are two to 14 times as likely to acquire HIV than males of the same age. In Malawi, HIV incidences are eight times higher among females aged 15-24 years than their male counterparts. DREAMS is delivered through a comprehensive package of evidence-based strategies that go beyond the health sector, addressing structural drivers that fuel AGYW’s HIV risk, including poverty, gender inequality, sexual violence, social isolation, and limited schooling. DREAMS is based on evidence-based interventions and builds on the premise that multiple interventions targeting AGYW are more impactful than providing a single intervention when multiple factors of vulnerability are present. In addition to focusing on interventions to empower AGYW to reduce their risk of HIV, the DREAMS package also aims to strengthen families, prevent violence, reduce HIV risk for male sexual partners and mobilize communities for change. The DREAMS program in Malawi is implemented in three districts: Zomba, Machinga and Blantyre. The recipient will provide a comprehensive package of DREAMS in Blantyre district and any additional districts based on COP scale up plans.

##   Rigorously Evaluating Programs and Policies to Prevent Child Sexual Abuse (CSA)

09/08/2021

//

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC) is soliciting investigator-initiated research proposals to rigorously evaluate prevention approaches (i.e., programs, policies, or practices) for their impact on the primary prevention of child sexual abuse (CSA) perpetrated by youth or adults. CSA is defined here as sexual victimization during childhood (under 18 years of age), excluding sexual violence (SV) in the specific context of dating/romantic relationships (i.e., teen dating violence [TDV] or intimate partner violence [IPV]). Research funded under this announcement will strengthen the evidence base for primary prevention of youth- or adult-perpetrated CSA. Applicants must propose rigorous evaluation designs, which for the purposes of this funding opportunity can include those that utilize experimental designs (i.e., randomized controlled trials) or rigorous quasi-experimental designs (e.g., comparative interrupted time series design, difference-in-differences, instrumental variables, regression discontinuity, regression point displacement, stepped wedge, propensity- score matching, comparison groups). Applicants must propose to rigorously evaluate an approach (i.e., program, policy, or practice) that has not yet been rigorously evaluated for its effectiveness in the primary prevention of youth- or adult-perpetrated CSA and that addresses one or more of the following six research priorities: Research Priority 1: Approaches developed for the primary prevention of youth- or adult-perpetrated CSA; Research Priority 2: Evidence-based approaches that have empirical evidence of effectiveness in reducing other forms of violence (e.g., intimate partner violence, youth violence, other forms of child abuse and neglect); Research Priority 3: Community- or societal-level approaches (i.e., programs, policies, or practices that target characteristics of settings that increase or buffer against the risk for violence); Research Priority 4: Approaches focused on preventing or reducing commercial sexual exploitation of children (CSEC) including sex trafficking as a form of CSA; Research Priority 5: Approaches focused on preventing technology-facilitated CSA (e.g., soliciting sexual contact or receiving sexual images from minors electronically, downloading/possession of online child pornography); Research Priority 6: Organizational policy approaches with the potential to prevent CSA perpetration in youth-serving organizations (e.g., juvenile residential care facilities, group foster care).

Successful applicants are expected to submit plans for the implementation of sexual risk avoidance education that normalizes the optimal health behavior of avoiding non-marital sexual activity, with a focus on the future health, psychological wellbeing, and economic success of youth. Applicants must agree to: 1) use medically accurate information referenced to peer-reviewed publications by educational, scientific, governmental, or health organizations; implement an evidence-based approach integrating research findings with practical implementation that aligns with the needs and desired outcomes for the intended audience; and 2) teach the benefits associated with self-regulation, success sequencing for poverty prevention, healthy relationships, goal setting, resisting sexual coercion, dating violence, and other youth risk behaviors such as underage drinking or illicit drug use without normalizing teen sexual activity. The Title V SRAE legislation requires unambiguous and primary emphasis and context for each of the A-F topics listed in the NOFO to be addressed in program implementation. Additionally, there is a requirement that messages to youth normalize the optimal health behavior of avoiding non-marital sexual activity.
