Summary

This project will pilot test a step-by-step guide for community-based organizations to engage in evidence-based adaptation of interventions previously shown to be effective in research settings for use in real world applications. The main purpose of this program is to improve understanding of the processes needed for adapting evidence-based behavioral interventions to fit new conditions or populations and to pilot CDC-developed draft guidance for adaptation. The second purpose of the program is to increase the number of effective behavioral HIV prevention interventions for 18-24 year old sero-positive men of color who have sex with other men (MSM of color).

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Healthy Relationships

"Healthy Relationships," grounded in the social cognitive theory, is a five-session, group-level intervention originally designed for HIV-positive heterosexual individuals seeking skills-building and support around risk reduction, as well as disclosure of status and sexual preference. Through clip media and active role-plays, the intervention promotes the development of decision-making and problem-solving tools, empowering participants to make voluntary and informed decisions around disclosure and safer sex practices. This model was formally disseminated to AIDS Service Organizations as part of CDC's strategic plan - Advancing HIV Prevention, New Strategies for a Changing Epidemic - which focused on innovative strategies to recruit individuals into HIV testing, as well as a movement towards secondary prevention efforts.
