Researchers collaborated with stakeholders in the planning, execution and evaluation, and dissemination phases of CATCH…

Professional actors were trained to portray HIV-infected AYA according to standardized scripts. HCWs completed a 2-day SP training that included didactic sessions, 7 video-recorded SP encounters, and group …
