Opportunity Information: Apply for W81XWH 22 DHAPP
The Department of Defense HIV/AIDS Prevention Program (DHAPP) is a Department of Defense cooperative agreement opportunity, managed through the U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA), that supports HIV prevention, care, and treatment programming within foreign military health systems under the broader PEPFAR framework. The core aim is to save lives, prevent new HIV infections, and speed progress toward HIV epidemic control by helping partner-country militaries build effective, evidence-based, and measurable HIV programs that can be sustained over time. A key practical detail is that the announcement is expected to be updated periodically with country-specific guidance contained in an attachment, and applicants are encouraged to monitor revisions because those narratives can materially affect what a competitive application should propose.
DHAPP describes a country-tailored approach rather than a one-size-fits-all model. Program development is framed as a planning and implementation cycle that begins with engaging in-country stakeholders to identify priority program areas and technical assistance needs, then adapting activities to the local epidemic context with special attention to the military population. The program emphasizes strengthening military capacity for long-term ownership and behavior change, designing interventions that leverage lessons and assets from other successful in-country partners, aligning activities to national implementation plans and PEPFAR priorities, and then implementing and monitoring work to ensure accountability and sustainability. In other words, DHAPP is not only funding service delivery; it is also funding the systems, policies, and management capabilities needed to keep those services functioning and improving after external support is reduced.
The opportunity highlights specific technical priorities applicants should be prepared to address. These include clear military-sector support and ownership; actionable plans and policies that advance epidemic control; and strong alignment with both PEPFAR and national strategies. A major performance focus is expansion of HIV testing and treatment to meet the global 90-90-90 targets (and the later 95-95-95 targets), meaning high levels of diagnosis among people living with HIV, high treatment coverage among those diagnosed, and high viral suppression among those on treatment. Care and treatment proposals are expected to follow a "Treat All" approach and may need differentiated service delivery models that integrate or coordinate with care for tuberculosis, hepatitis, cervical cancer screening and management for women living with HIV, other sexually transmitted infections, opportunistic infections, and clinical management for advanced HIV disease. The scope also explicitly includes prevention of mother-to-child transmission and comprehensive "combination prevention" that brings together biomedical tools, behavioral interventions, and structural supports to reduce sexual transmission of HIV and other STIs.
DHAPP also calls for targeted prevention packages for specific populations, including key populations, other priority populations, and youth-focused interventions. Reducing HIV-related stigma and discrimination is identified as a priority area as well, reflecting the program view that stigma directly undermines testing uptake, treatment adherence, and retention in care. On the program management side, DHAPP places heavy weight on monitoring and evaluation: collecting and reporting PEPFAR indicators, using clinical and laboratory monitoring tools to ensure service quality, and making rapid course corrections based on results. Strengthening HIV data systems is presented as essential for better clinical decision-making and improved program management, signaling that informatics, data quality, and routine use of data for performance improvement are central expectations rather than optional add-ons.
A recurring theme throughout the announcement is sustainability and transition to local ownership. Local partners are explicitly encouraged to apply, and the intent is to expand the ability of local institutions, governments, and community-based or community-led organizations to deliver both direct HIV services and the supporting non-direct services at the site level. The goal of this transition language is to ensure long-term durability of HIV programming, regardless of current antiretroviral coverage levels, by building sufficient local capacity and capability to maintain epidemic control outcomes.
From the funding mechanics provided, this is a discretionary health funding opportunity using a cooperative agreement instrument, indicating substantial federal involvement or collaboration during implementation. The opportunity number is W81XWH 22 DHAPP, the CFDA listing is 12.350, eligibility is described as unrestricted unless further limited in the full text, and the program anticipates making about 15 awards. The posted award ceiling is listed as 0, which typically signals that applicants need to rely on the full announcement and country-specific narratives for budgeting expectations rather than assuming a single fixed maximum. The opportunity was created on September 19, 2022, with an original closing date of September 18, 2027, reinforcing that this is a multi-year, continuously updated solicitation where staying current with amendments and country guidance is important for applicants.Apply for W81XWH 22 DHAPP
