Perspectives on non-specialist training for mental health care delivery in South Africa
Task-sharing, or the distribution of tasks to non-specialists, is a key strategy for expanding access to mental health services, particularly in low- and lower-middle income countries. However, training practices are not standardized and non-specialist training outcomes in mental health care are variable. A better understanding of current practices and challenges in task-shared mental health care training is much needed to help improve training o…
Cost-effectiveness of a peer-delivered behavioral intervention for adherence to antiretroviral therapy and alcohol and drug use in South African HIV care
Cost-effective approaches for integrating behavioral interventions for problematic alcohol and other drug (AOD) use into HIV care is needed, as problematic AOD is a primary barrier to adherence of antiretroviral therapy (ART). Thus, we investigated the cost-effectiveness of a recently completed pilot trial in South Africa, that showed promising findings in improved adherence of antiretroviral therapy (ART). The trial compared a task-shared, peer-…
Early in the morning, there’s tolerance and later in the day it disappears ” – The intersection of resource scarcity, stress and stigma in mental health and substance use care in South Africa
Stress is a challenge among non-specialist health workers worldwide, particularly in low-resource settings. Understanding and targeting stress is critical for supporting non-specialists and their patients, as stress negatively affects patient care. Further, stigma toward mental health and substance use conditions also impacts patient care. However, there is little information on the intersection of these factors. This sub-analysis aims to explore…

The combination of HIV and alcohol use internalized stigmas are associated with greater symptoms of depression in a South African sample living with HIV
Approximately one-third of people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in South Africa (SA) present to HIV care with unhealthy alcohol use (UA); depression is highly prevalent among this population. Internalized HIV and UA stigma have been associated with greater depressive symptoms when examined in isolation. Yet, prior research has rarely examined how internalized HIV and UA stigmas together relate to depressive symptoms and related o…
Patient and provider perceptions of a peer-delivered intervention (‘ Khanya ’) to improve anti-retroviral adherence and substance use in South Africa
Findings underscore the importance of examining patients' perspectives on specific intervention components within intervention packages. While mindfulness training and peer delivery models were positively perceived by consumers, they are rarely used within task-shared behavioral interventions in low- and middle-income countries
Gender Moderates Results of a Randomized Clinical Trial for the Khanya Intervention for Substance Use and ART Adherence in HIV Care in South Africa
Little is known about gender effects of alcohol and drug use (AOD) among people living with HIV (PLWH) in resource-limited settings. Using multilevel models, we tested whether gender moderated the effect of Khanya, a cognitive-behavioral therapy-based intervention addressing antiretroviral (ART) adherence and AOD reduction. We enrolled 61 participants from HIV care and examined outcomes at 3- and 6-months compared to enhanced treatment as usual (…
