ATN 116_128 HIV Viral Load Form [CRF 115] Dataset in ATN 116 Structural Enhancements to the SMILE Program / ATN 128 PEACOC: A Multi-Agency (ATN-NIH-CDC-HRSA) Collaboration

Data from HIV Viral Load Form [CRF 115]
Study Description
ATN 116 utilized existing Connect to Protect (C2P) coalition infrastructure to address structural barriers hindering the ability of HIV-infected youth to link to care and remain engaged in care, continuing efforts outlined in ATN 095 and ATN 105. Enhanced strategic planning activities assisted coalitions in identifying structural changes to address Linkage-to-Care (LTC), Engagement-in-Care (EIC), and/or Retention-in-Care (RIC) outcomes for newly diagnosed HIV+ youth.

ATN 128 extended ATN 116, pairing four Ryan White Part D (RWD) sites with five Adolescent Medicine Trials Units. LTC Coordinators at the paired sites received intensive training in motivational interviewing focused on improving acceptance of LTC services and increasing adherence to HIV-related medical visits. RWD site personnel also joined C2P activities intended to address structural barriers to HIV care.
As ATN 128 is a continuation of ATN 116, the files should be analyzed together. ATN 116 - Community members engaged in the C2P coalitions and the broader mobilization effort. ATN 128 - Newly diagnosed HIV+ youth ages 12 to 24.
