Eligibility Category: N on-profit Mozambican Community Based organizations (CBOs) that are led by People Living With or Affected by HIV and networks of Key Populations Executive Summary: The U.S. Embassy in Mozambique/Bureau of Africa at the U.S. Department of State (DOS) announces this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for Community-Led Monitoring. A Grant for up to $25,000 U.S. Dollars (USD) in FY 2022 will be awarded for work that will support Community-Led Monitoring. The expected period of performance is 12 months. Geographic Region: Projects which may be funded will cover the following Geographic Regions: PEPFAR-supported HIV treatment sites in Maputo Province, Inhambane Province, Gaza Province, Nampula Province, Manica Province, Sofala Province. Note: Projects will be in these provinces with districts and health facility sites determined after proposal selection and in coordination with other donors and implementing partners. Funder will ensure that sites will not overlap with current organizations supporting community led monitoring activities at the same health facility or in the same communities. The selection committee will endeavor to fund organizations in each of the selected provinces. Should there not be a proposal submitted from one of the provinces listed above, the discretion will fall to the PEPFAR Coordination Office to determine which additional organizations to fund. A.1. Background: The President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) guidance for the Country Operational Plan for FY22 (COP 21) states that it is a minimum program requirement that HIV affected populations are provided continuous, quality, client-centered services, and that independent, routine, national community-led monitoring efforts to improve the accessibility and quality of services are part of the HIV response. Towards this end, the PEPFAR Coordination Office intends to finance Community-Based Organizations (CBOs) and other civil society groups to initiate, lead, and implement community-led monitoring (CLM). Community-led Monitoring is an accountability mechanism for the national HIV response, led and implemented by local community-led organizations of people living with HIV (PLHIV), networks of Key Populations (KPs), or other affected groups. These organizations will document the experiences of beneficiaries of HIV services in a routine and systematic manner, using data routinely collected from clinic users by trained, paid clinic monitors. These data will focus on the accessibility and quality of HIV services. These data will be analyzed by communities and used to develop community-led interventions at the facility, district, provincial and national levels to correct the problems uncovered by community-led monitoring, ultimately leading to improved HIV outcomes. Technical assistance, including training on methods and tools as well as other needed support, will be provided to all recipient organizations. A.2. Program Objectives: Objectives and Expected Outcomes: The Recipient agrees to perform the program and meet the specific objectives below: Education on health-related rights for PLHIV; Listening, monitoring, and resolving complaints and concerns; Independent evidence-based advocacy based on findings from community-led monitoring. A.3. Expected Results Expected results include the following: Improve the quality of services provided at the health facility; Create demand for humanized health services; Increase the proportion of PLHIV on treatment retained in ART at the health facility. A.4. Main Activities To achieve the goals and expected results, the program should include the following: Implement 4 cycles of CLM, including quantitative and qualitative data collection (health facility observation and patient interviews, focus group discussions, individual testimonies and door to door interviews); Conduct community education sessions around health rights for PLHIV; Convene smaller groups to hear concerns/grievances regarding barriers to care and treatment; Participate in the health (community) and co-management (facility) committees; Collaborate with health facility staff to ensure presentation/discussion of grievances reported by patients and to seek resolution of grievances that meet the needs of patients and PLHIV; A.5. Performance Indicators The following are required indicators. Output 1: Number of barriers/grievances identified per session Output 2: Number of actions taken, and the results obtained based on grievances identified Output 3: Reach to patients at the health facility (numbers of unique patients reached with sessions) Other indicators will be developed according to the national CLM program guidance, which is currently being finalized.

State Water Resources Control Board
The Cleanup and Abatement Account (CAA) funds may be utilized to fund: (1) projects that clean up and/or abate the effects of a waste on waters of the State, or (2) projects that address urgent drinking water needs. The Cleanup and Abatement Account (CAA) was created by Water Code Sections 13440-13443 to provide grants for the cleanup or abatement of a condition of pollution when there are no viable responsible parties available to undertake the work. Water code section 13442 authorizes the State Water Board to utilize CAA funds to address an urgent drinking water need. This includes needs due to drought, contamination, or other eligible emergencies. The CAA is funded by various monies including those: appropriated by the Legislature; collected as part of criminal penalties or civil proceedings brought pursuant to Division 7 of the Water Code; collected or recovered by the State Water Board or a Regional Water Quality Control Board (Regional Water Board) under Chapter 6.7 of Division 20 of the Health and Safety Code; and repaid by loan recipients, including principal, interest, and fees. In some instances, a court judgment or settlement agreement specifies how collected funds are to be spent (e.g., a specific cleanup, investigation, or supplemental environmental project [SEP]). Those funds are typically set aside in the CAA for that identified purpose, consistent with statutes governing uses of the CAA. After accounting for these needs and other prior encumbrances, remaining CAA funds may be utilized to fund: (1) projects that clean up and/or abate the effects of a waste on waters of the State, or (2) projects that address urgent drinking water needs.
