An Effectiveness Trial of the PrEP for WINGS Study

(Effectiveness Aim 1) To test the comparative effectiveness of PreP for WINGS versus PrEP alone on primary outcomes of increasing PrEP initiation measured by self-report/medical records, recent adherence and longer-term adherence by self-report/medical records over the 6-month follow-up; and secondary outcomes of decreasing IPV, hazardous drinking, recidivism, and HIV risks. (Moderation Aim 2) To test if the effectiveness of WINGS+PrEP on study outcomes is moderated by key participant subgroups based on race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, age, education, incarceration history, IPV severity, substance use disorders (SUDs), digital access and literacy, housing stability, and medical mistrust.

Trauma Screening/Referral and Interpersonal Violence Prevention for Women with Substance Use Disorders

The purpose of this project is to implement a pilot study to investigate the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of a peer support specialist delivered violence prevention program for women in substance use treatment. The program entails a posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) screening, resource referral, and two session interpersonal violence prevention protocol for 60 participants. In this single arm trial, women are recruited from three substance use treatment facilities. Participants complete baseline, post-intervention, one-month, and three-month follow-up assessments. Self-report surveys assess trauma exposure, knowledge and behaviors related to interpersonal violence, and intervention engagement.
