Summary

In Vietnam, adolescent and young men who have sex with men (AYMSM) are among those most affected by HIV, and they also experience significant HIV-related mental health and stigma challenges. The study team proposes to adapt Project YES+ to address both mental health and internalized HIV stigma among AYMSM living with HIV in Vietnam. This research will build local capacity and develop networks for collaborative research on mental health and stigma in this population between Vietnam, Zambia and the United States.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

To Hieu (I understand)

Project YES+ was developed from two evidence-based interventions - Project Yes! and Self-Help Plus, based on Social Cognitive Theory (Project Yes!) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (Self-Help Plus). The youth-focused intervention component comprises 6 individual sessions with a youth peer mentor, 3 youth group sessions facilitated by a youth peer mentor and 5 group sessions to learn stress management skills. The original intervention was designed for 4 months and involves caregivers. The adaptation of Project YES+ for adolescents and young men who have sex with men living with HIV in Vietnam will make revisions on the content, frequency and delivery format of the intervention.
