Interventions

Treatment Advocacybehavioral

Treatment advocacy is a 24-week intervention with booster sessions, including a 4-week intensive intervention followed by a 20-week maintenance period. In the first 4 weeks, all participants receive 4 individual weekly 60-minute sessions and 1 group HIV education session. In the next 20 weeks, all participants receive booster sessions in weeks 12 and 20, and a counselor check-in phone call in week 8 regarding need for new referrals and adherence barriers. Participants who have not demonstrated good adherence (≥90%) during the prior 2 weeks receive ≤4 additional booster sessions at weeks 14, 16, 22, and 24. Clients receive additional linkage with APLA's social service programs, as necessary.
