Social Media HIV Prevention Intervention for High Risk Rural Women
Sponsor: Michele Staton
Summary
The overall aim of this R34 application is to adapt and feasibility test an evidence-based HIV prevention education for high-risk, underserved rural women in Appalachia. This study has potential to make a significant contribution to science by advancing knowledge on the use of social media to increase access to prevention interventions to reduce high-risk substance use and related health disparities among rural women during a time of emerging and significant public health risk in Appalachia. Successfully accomplishing study aims will respond to a critical and unmet need to increase access to prevention interventions using social media, as well as advance knowledge about the high-risk drug use behaviors among vulnerable populations.
