Stigma reduction intervention
Care providers will complete the Stigma Reduction Intervention curriculum. The intervention is a multi-day stigma reduction training program for providers. Content design is greatly informed by materials developed in our pilot R34 study, and which may be modified prior to the intervention if the team gains new insights from the baseline round of unannounced visits and each of the two CABs. Briefly, the intervention consists of both didactic and experiential learning components. Didactic sessions include instruction on syphilis epidemiology, clinical management, and public health significance. Experiential sessions include discussion sessions that are facilitated by pre-recorded videos, followed by role play with trained SPs.
