Presidents Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief

Recognizing the HIV/AIDS pandemic as one of the great health challenges of our time, the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) was launched in 2003 - the largest international public health initiative aimed at a single disease that any nation has ever undertaken.

Working in partnership with host nations over a ten-year period, PEPFAR is expected to support treatment for at approximately 3 million people, prevent 12 million new HIV infections, and care for 12 million people, including 5 million orphans and other vulnerable children.

To meet these goals, PEPFAR also will train some 140,000 new healthcare workers in HIV/AIDS prevention, treatment and care.
