Those eligible to apply include individuals, community-based organizations, local registered non-governmental organizations, faith-based groups, clubs and services organizations, and the host government. Applications and additional information may be requested by e-mailing KingstonAmbHIVPP@state.gov. Proposals must be received by 4 p.m., Sept. 30.
