Justification: The purpose of these cooperative agreements is to save lives, prevent HIV infections, and accelerate progress toward achieving HIV/AIDS epidemic control in more than 50 countries around the world. Recipients have completed certain project activities, but evaluation and transition to scale-up has been interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic and associated country-specific restrictions. This notice extends the current project period for HRSA-15-021, Quality Improvement Capacity for Impact Project, by one year until September 29, 2021, to ensure the orderly conclusion of these projects while facilitating virtual stakeholder engagement during the COVID-19 pandemic.
