Network of People Living with HIV and AIDS in Nigeria (NEPWHAN) is an indigenous non -governmental organization, established in 1998 to serve as a collective voice of PLHIV in Nigeria. The Network coordinates, supervises and monitors programs and activities of Support Groups of People Living with HIV/AID in Nigeria. The organization is registered with Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) in Nigeria as a charity, non-profit and non-governmental organization. The Network has established structures at the six geopolitical zones and the 36 State of the Federation, including the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). It coordinates the affairs of Support Groups’ membership across the Federation, as the umbrella administrative body of all support groups of people living with HIV in Nigeria. In response to the need for an effective State Level Project Implementation, which would enhance Programing, Monitoring and Evaluation and Financial Management capacity of the implementing CBOs, NEPWHAN is looking for a knowledgeable and motivated candidate to fill the position below: Job Title: Program Assistant - Fhi360 Project Location: Abuja Background The role of effective care & support-treatment adherence services cannot be over emphasized in the context of NEPWHAN/FHI360/GF impact project in Nigeria and elsewhere. On the NFM project of GF impact, capacity of 420 CBOs was built to generate demand for ATM services in GF supported facilities across the 36 States and FCT. A lot of lessons were learnt from the implementation of that phase; some of these lessons include: weak coordination of various community components of the GF grant resulting in parallel implementation across PRs; lack of effective linkage between community and facilities, weak capacity of some CBOs etc. These lessons therefore informed the redesigning and consolidation of Care &support, treatment adherence services ‘strategies in the new round of funding known as New Funding Model (NFM). The NFM’s overall intention is to focus on high impact and strategic intervention approach. To achieve this, efforts are now redirected at ensuring effective coordination of the various community components on the HIV Actors in particular. Attention is focused on social mobilization for uptake of HCT by pregnant women and general population. The grant is presently being implemented in the twelve plus one PMTCT States which are; Akwa-Ibom, Benue, Cross Rivers, Imo, Kaduna, Kano, Lagos, Nasarawa, Oyo, Rivers, Sokoto, Taraba states and FCT. The intervention is specifically being implemented in the 107 LGAs where GF health facilities have been activated and attention is being focused on mobilizing pregnant women and general population for HIV Counselling & Testing (HCT). Family health international(FHI360) selected as one of the Principal Recipients (PRs) to execute care & support; treatment adherence services GF NFM impact on HIV grant. Similarly, FHI360 selected the Network of People living with HIV and AIDS in Nigeria (NEPWHAN) as one of its Sub-Recipients (SRs) to implement the Global fund care & support component with special reference to treatment adherence services in 12 states including FCT (Benue, Kaduna, Taraba, Cross Rivers, Rivers, Akwa-Ibon, Oyo, Sokoto, kano, Imo state and FCT).
