Brief Summary: This study consists of a randomized controlled trial (RCT) of a multi-session cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) group intervention that aims to improve HIV outcomes by increasing adaptive, effective coping responses to stigma from intersectional identities related to ethnicity, immigration status, sexual minority identity, HIV status, and PrEP use among Latinx sexual minority men (SMM).
Detailed Description: This study consists of a randomized controlled trial (RCT) of a multi-session cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) group intervention that aims to improve HIV outcomes by increasing adaptive, effective coping responses to stigma from intersectional identities related to ethnicity, immigration status, sexual minority identity, HIV status, and PrEP use among Latinx sexual minority men (SMM). We will test intervention effects on regular HIV testing and use of prevention strategies. The intervention was developed in partnership with community stakeholders at Bienestar Human Services, Inc., a Latinx-focused organization in Los Angeles County (LAC), CA. The intervention is flexible for use in community-based organizations, such as in ongoing support groups. The Specific Aims are: Aim 1. To conduct a randomized controlled trial of a culturally congruent cognitive behavior therapy group intervention for immigrant Latinx sexual minority men, to test intervention effects on regular HIV testing and PrEP uptake. Aim 2. To examine mechanisms of intervention effects on regular HIV testing and PrEP uptake, including more effective coping (e.g., reduced internalized stigma). Aim 3. To conduct a cost-effectiveness analysis of the intervention.
