ABOUT AMERICARES AmeriCares is a nonprofit global health and disaster relief organization that delivers medicines, medical supplies and aid to people in need around the world and across the United States. Since it was established in 1982, AmeriCares has distributed more than $10 billion in humanitarian aid to 164 countries. POSITION SUMMARY AmeriCares Medical Outreach Program equips U.S.-based volunteer medical teams traveling to some of the most impoverished areas of the world where even basic medical care may be non-existent or inaccessible. They provide a wide range of health care services and have a profound impact on the quality of life and productivity of the people they treat. Medical volunteer teams travel to remote villages to provide primary health care and health education, as well as to urban slums where extreme poverty equally prevents access to care. AmeriCares also supports teams of highly skilled surgeons conducting sophisticated cardiovascular, orthopedic and reconstructive procedures at hospitals that may lack appropriate staff, equipment and other essential resources. All donate their time and expertise to treat people who might otherwise not receive care and to transfer knowledge to strengthen local health care capabilities. Last year, the program provisioned more than 1,050 volunteer medical teams traveling to 83 countries with over $40 million in medical and surgical supplies. The Medical Outreach Program (MOP) is distinguished by the large volume of aid it provides, the direct delivery of products via medical volunteers, and its high impact in a short time frame. More than one hundred requests for medical donations are processed each month involving hundreds of medical professionals and sponsoring organizations, and resulting in thousands of people receiving desperately needed health care. While we have a large body of documentation on these aspects of the program, some thoughtful analysis is needed to learn more about our constituents so we can better serve them and help more people access the health care and medicines they need.

Since 2002, the Clinton Health Access Initiative, CHAI (formerly the Clinton HIV/AIDS Initiative), has been assisting developing countries in implementing large-scale, integrated HIV care, treatment, and prevention programs. CHAI is currently active in Africa, the Caribbean, Asia, and Eastern Europe. In support of national HIV/AIDS programs, CHAI provides technical assistance, mobilizes human and financial resources, and facilitates the sharing of best practices across projects. CHAI has also negotiated agreements with leading pharmaceutical companies that have lowered the cost of HIV/AIDS and malaria diagnostics and treatment in the developing world by 30-90%. Our ultimate objectives are to make high-quality HIV/AIDS and malaria care and treatment available to all who need it, and to partner with governments and other stakeholders to strengthen healthcare systems and develop sustainable strategies to overcome obstacles to scale-up. Summary of Position: The Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) is looking for volunteer technical advisors to assist governments in developing proposals for funding from the Global Fund to fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria (Global Fund), and in managing approved proposals. The Global Fund is one of the largest sources of funding for the three diseases, and to access resources countries are required to develop a complex, detailed proposal. Technical assistance to support proposal development requires strong coordination with the national government and other donor/NGO partners in country to identify high-priority program areas, the ability to interpret data and synthesize complex documents and issues into clear, straightforward prose, and quantitative skills to put together well-supported budgets and targets. Once resources are approved, governments often require technical assistance in ensuring the funds are effectively and efficiently utilized, and in building the management systems to ensure overall program effectiveness. CHAI provides staff support for the various coordinating, writing, quantification and systems building tasks necessary for a successful proposal and program implementation. CHAI works in close partnership with the Ministries of Health (MOH) in these countries, procuring pediatric and second line ARVs, and providing technical assistance in a variety of areas. The Technical Advisors will work closely with the CHAI country team on the ground to provide technical support to the MOH, cooperating on a regular basis with donors, NGOs and civil society. These are challenging but very rewarding positions, which will have direct and immediate impact on tens of thousands of patients in need of life-saving medications. It is an opportunity to work closely with governments committed to HIV prevention, care and treatment, provide critical skills and build systems, tools and capacity that will enable access to and better management of funds to fight the disease.
