Project Description

This project funded by the UNC CFAR adapted an HIV prevention intervention for Black and Coloured couples in South Africa for use with Hispanic couples in North Carolina. The project will be conducted in two phases. The formative phase will use focus groups with Hispanic couples and with local services providers to inform the adaptation of the couples' intervention that was originally developed for use with couples in South Africa. The pilot phase of the project will use a single group pre-test post-test design to assess the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention with Hispanic couples in North Carolina. Findings from this study provided preliminary data for an R34 proposal to further refine the intervention and test it in a small randomized trial.
