Sponsor: Florida State University
Summary
The Spanish language Healthy Choices intervention pilot study (N=45) holds direct relevance to the United States and federal priorities related to improving HIV outcomes to reduce transmission using implementation science models. If Healthy Choices is found to have a clinical signal of impact, our team is committed to testing the intervention in the United States and training Spanish speaking HIV care navigators on the intervention, specifically in the southern United States where Spanish speaking populations are concentrated, namely in Alabama, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, and Florida.
