United States18 participantsStarted 2021-07-01

Plain-language summary

This project seeks to adapt and pilot a trauma-informed combination intervention named 'Kickin' it with the Gurlz' that was designed with, for, and by transgender women of color to improve HIV prevention continuum outcomes. The intervention components include a violence and gender affirmation screening tool, a peer-led adaptation of Seeking Safety, and individual-level peer navigation sessions. We will examine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary promise of the multicomponent by conducting a one-arm pilot with 30 transgender women of color who have a history of trauma. Participants will complete baseline, immediate post-intervention, and 3-month follow up assessments.
