The Abstinence and Risk Avoidance for Youth Program (ARK), a five-year project funded by PEPFAR, was launched in Kenya, Tanzania, and Haiti to address abstinence and mutual faithfulness for HIV prevention. Led by World Vision, the project focused on HIV prevention among girls age 10-24, with a secondary focus on boys of the same age. Parents, teachers, religious and traditional leaders, service providers, and other adults that interact with youth also benefited from ARK’s efforts. CCP supported the project by conducting trainings to help youth and adults form action groups and conduct outreach in their communities, using materials and tools developed by ARK. CCP designed training for youth on message development and script writing. CCP utilized radio spots, interactive discussions and listener groups to engage experts and lay people to discuss ARK messages.

Featured Projects
The Santé pour le Développement et la Stabilité d’Haïti (SDSH) Project—Pwojé Djanm (“Robust Project”) in Creole—is a three-year project funded by USAID. This project, led by MSH, seeks to increase the availability and use of essential social services. The project provides technical support to the Ministry of Health at central and departmental levels; it supports local service delivery NGOs as well as public sites using performance-based contracts. CCP’s contribution to the project consists in the strategic orientation and provision of technical assistance to the partners in the areas of behavior change communication and community mobilization.
The Leadership, Management, and Sustainability 2 (LMS2) project is a continuation of LMS, which provided technical assistance to Haiti’s Ministry of Health (MOH) to coordinate and plan interventions aimed at reducing HIV transmission. A five-year project, LSM2 is funded by USAID and led by CCP in partnership with Management Sciences for Health (MSH) and Haiti’s MOH. LMS2 will continue to reinforce the MOH capacity, strengthen the capacity of local organizations involved in HIV/AIDS prevention, and fight against workplace HIV stigma and discrimination. LMS2 is also mandated to coordinate sexual prevention interventions through the existing PEPFAR behavior change communication (BCC) technical working group.
