² PEPFAR defines direct support as data that captures the number of individuals receiving prevention, care, and treatment services through service delivery sites or providers directly supported by U.S. Government (USG) interventions or activities at the point of service delivery. An intervention or activity is considered to be direct support if it can be associated with counts of uniquely identified individuals receiving prevention, care, or treatment services at a unique program or service delivery point benefiting from the intervention or activity. The indicators in effect in FY 2009, as well as the Next Generation Indicators currently in force for PEPFAR's second phase, may be found at www.pepfar.gov/guidance/.

³ "N/A" means that the U.S. Government did not support programs.
