研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this study is to adapt an existing couples-level HIV prevention intervention for community populations (CONNECT I/II; PI: El-Bassel) to enable implementation among couples affected by incarceration (PRISON CONNECT) and pilot test its feasibility and acceptability among men incarcerated in the Connecticut Department of Correction (CTDOC) and their community-dwelling committed female partners.
详细描述
This pilot study will recruit male inmates in the Connecticut Department of Correction and their community-dwelling female partner. Using an adapted version of an efficacious couples-level HIV prevention intervention for community populations (CONNECT; PI: El-Bassel), this study will pilot test a single in-prison intervention session using face-to-face or teleconferencing modalities and a brief community follow-up session. Feasibility and acceptability among the inmates and their partners will be assessed.
