COCODA

Community Concern of Orphans and Development Association COCODA is a non-
governmental organization established in 2000. COCODA’s establishment as its
name suggests, resulted from intensifying concern among community members in
Njombe over the surging number of orphans, mainly as a consequence to swelling
amount of people infected by HIV and dying from AIDS, majority being adults
leaving behind young children without parents. This trend had a negative
impact on social and economic development. Hence COCODA envisioned to offer
effective response to the situation through providing education to local
community on HIV/ AIDS, supporting orphans and most vulnerable children,
providing vocational skills to youth and establishment of small scale income
generating groups for community sustainable economy.

Meeting Targets and Maintaining Epidemic Control EpiC is a global project
funded by the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief PEPFAR and the
U.S. Agency for International Development USAID which is dedicated to
achieving and maintaining HIV epidemic control. It is led by FHI 360 as prime
and has a five-year period of performance from April 15, 2019 to April 14,
2024.

EpiC provides strategic technical assistance TA and direct service delivery
to break through barriers to 95-95-95 and improve HIV case-finding, prevention
and linkage to treatment among key and priority populations PP. In
Njombe region the project is implemented by COCODA in 6 councils Njombe
TC, Njombe DC, Makambako TC, Wanging’ombe DC, Ludewa DC and Makete DC to
address critical gaps and bottlenecks in the response to HIV among key and
