Addressing Young Men's Substance Use and HIV Risk

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: HIV

In brief

This project will develop, implement, and evaluate a community-level intervention for Black and White substance-using MSM between the ages of 15 and 29. The intervention is designed to change both social norms and risk behavior using persuasive media communication and interpersonal networking as primary intervention strategies. Qualitative data from focus groups and interviews will inform the development of the intervention. The effects of the intervention will be assessed through annual interviews with young Black and White MSM in Philadelphia where the intervention will be implemented and in Baltimore, our comparison community.
