Interventions

Treatment Ambassadorbehavioral

This multi-component intervention, titled the "Treatment Ambassador Program," will target people living with HIV who have not initiated ART within 3 months of testing positive. Our intervention will last for 8 sessions over 8-14 weeks, and will aim to address the three steams of influences on decision-making through a system of patient navigation and support with an assigned partner living with HIV who is trained in motivational interviewing. It will be aimed at addressing barriers to ART initiation identified through our prior qualitative research, as framed through the Theory of Triadic Influence, by addressing the three streams of influences on decision-making through a system of patient navigation and support.
