Development of a Secondary Prevention Intervention Targeting HIV-Positive Black Young Men Who Have Sex With Men

This study conducted formative research to develop a culturally appropriate secondary prevention intervention for HIV-positive black young men who have sex with men (B-YMSM). At two AMTU sites, a total of four focus groups guided the selection of the intervention content areas and the development of the intervention manual. The intervention aimed to address increasing engagement in HIV treatment, improving medication adherence, reducing sexual risk behaviors, reducing substance use behaviors, and increasing HIV status disclosure.

本研究开展形成性研究，旨在为人类免疫缺陷病毒（HIV）阳性黑人男男性行为青年男性（B-YMSM）开发文化适配的二级预防干预方案。在两家AMTU站点，研究团队通过共4组焦点小组讨论，确定了干预内容范畴并编制了干预手册。该干预方案旨在达成多重目标：提升HIV治疗参与度、提高服药依从性、降低性风险行为、减少物质使用行为，以及增加HIV感染状况披露行为。
