The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) awarded a $1,845,763 Project Grant under the USAID Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas program (CFDA 98.001) to Asociacion Kukulcan, a non-profit organization based in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. The purpose of this 3-year grant, running from August 2024 to August 2027, is to strengthen collaboration across USAID's existing efforts and identify creative solutions to address gaps in the gender-based violence (GBV) response and prevention spectrum in Honduras. The grant aims to implement survivor-centered and perpetrator-engaging approaches to increase the chance of breaking the cycle of violence, with a specific focus on supporting the LGBTI+ community. In addition to this major project grant, Asociacion Kukulcan has also received sub-grant awards related to HIV services, working with Intrahealth International, Inc. to reduce ART dropout rates, facilitate HIV testing, deliver ARV packages, and implement follow-up strategies for individuals starting antiretroviral treatment in the Central District of Honduras.

The purpose of the "resiliencia DE LAS personas lgbti+ ante LA violencia basada EN género" activity is to strengthen the collaboration across the mission's existing efforts and identify creative solutions to address the gaps across the GBV response and prevention spectrum that are both survivor-centered and perpetrator-engaging to increase the chance of breaking the cycle of violence.
