7 DREAMS and the Private Sector PEPFAR works with stellar private sector partners to innovate and find the most effective ways to change girls lives. Their voices and support are critical. Girl Effect is launching a culture brand in Malawi to reach the most vulnerable girls (and boys) with DREAMS messaging Johnson & Johnson listens to and brings girls voices to life to tell success stories; inform programming; and amplify messaging. The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation funds implementation research and an impact evaluation Gilead provides resources to purchase pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) ViiV provides capacity-building to community-based organizations

10 DREAMS Results World AIDS Day, 2017 For the first time, the latest PEPFAR data show significant declines in new HIV diagnoses among adolescent girls and young women. In the 10 African countries (63 districts) implementing DREAMS, the majority (65%) of the highest-hivburden communities or districts achieved a percent or greater decline in new HIV diagnoses among young women. Importantly, new diagnoses declined in nearly all DREAMS intervention districts.
