Study Summary
The proposed project is a research collaboration between the University of Texas at El Paso, The Alliance for Border Collaboratives in El Paso, Texas and Programa Companeros in Juarez City, Mexico to adapt, implement, and evaluate a multi-level community-based HIV prevention intervention (Project Encuentro). The intervention will target people who inject drugs (PWID) and consists of: 1) A social network HIV testing component, 2) a peer network psychoeducational intervention, and 3) community events. The intervention was developed in an area severely affected by violence and stigma towards people who use drugs (PWUD), El Salvador, which makes it particularly suitable for adaptation to meet the needs of PWUD living in the proposed intervention site, the U.S.-Mexico border. The proposed intervention site also has been severely affected by violence which has curtailed any prior attempts to reduce the risk of HIV acquisition among PWUD. Violence has worsened structural factors which affect HIV risk such as, increasing police persecution, stigma and reducing access to harm reduction resources. The investigators will engage in formative research to understand the context of HIV risk for PWID in the border region post violence and adapt the intervention accordingly. Findings will allow the investigators to tailor intervention components to meet the needs of PWID in the region. Subsequently, the investigators propose to test intervention effectiveness and evaluate implementation barriers and facilitators. To accomplish study aims a mixed qualitative, quantitative approach will be employed. The investigators will begin with a formative phase by conducting in-depth interviews with PWID (n = 40) living in the region to understand how the context of drug use and HIV risk changed as a result of the violence and will administer a social network survey (n = 200) to characterize the configuration of risk networks. Findings will yield the necessary information to culturally adapt the
