Intersectional Discrimination and Preferences for Long-acting Injectable HIV PrEP among Gay, Bisexual, and Men Who have Sex with Men in Philadelphia by Ethnoracial Groups
A turning point for youth HIV care in the United States
Implementation Determinants of Scaling up and Disseminating HIV-Prevention and Treatment Services to Latino MSM in Three Ending the HIV Epidemic Priority Jurisdictions
SOMOS Alianza is a strategic alliance of HIV service implementers, HIV researchers, and community members from three jurisdictions: Miami, Florida, Orlando, Florida, and San Juan, Puerto Rico. Because of high HIV incidence among Latino men who have sex with men (LMSM), improved implementation of evidence-based HIV services is needed. We sought to identify determinants influencing the reach of HIV services to LMSM in these jurisdictions. Using the…
Uncovering geographic variations in HIV burden and prevention
Despite advancements in HIV prevention and treatment, disparities persist across the U.S. that are geographically and demographically unique. This study analyzed HIV burden and prevention efforts in three urban counties, Suffolk County, MA (Boston), Orange County, FL (Orlando), and Philadelphia County, PA (Philadelphia), using AIDSVu data. We assessed HIV prevalence, new diagnoses, Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) use, PrEP-to-Need Ratio (PnR), an…
Exploring interactive stories for sexual health education among young adults in the USA
Adolescents and young adults in the USA face significant sexual health challenges. Immigrant and refugee youth are particularly vulnerable due to barriers such as cultural silence around sex, contraception stigma, and knowledge gaps in sexual health. This pilot study explored the potential of a choose-your-own-adventure (CYOA) story intervention to address reproductive and sexual health disparities and enhance prevention engagement among immigran…
Integrating Legal Aid into HIV Care
Justice as care
People with HIV face a constellation of social and structural barriers, including unstable housing, discrimination, lack of identification documents, immigration issues, and denial of public benefits, that impede access to and retention in care. These health-harming legal needs are rarely addressed systematically in HIV service settings, despite longstanding calls for structural interventions. This study examines the role and impact of a Medical-…
Perspectives of immigrant and refugee youth in the U.S. On an interactive game for HIV prevention and sexual health
Medical-Legal Partnerships
These results underscore the feasibility of MLPs while offering valuable insights into their efficacy and challenges, guiding the implementation of MLPs to address health-harming legal needs, including discrimination, and thereby improving HIV care outcomes
Intersecting Epidemics
Young Black men who have sex with men (BMSM) in the USA face disproportionate rates of HIV incidence. Mental health vulnerabilities, including depression, anxiety, substance use, and trauma, further exacerbate the HIV epidemic among this population. Internalized homophobia, discrimination, and depression contribute to elevated rates of suicidal behavior among young BMSM, which in turn may influence engagement in HIV prevention behaviors, such as …
Feasibility and Acceptability Pilot Test of Connecting Latinos en Parejas
Despite recent emphasis on couples-based HIV prevention interventions, efficacious interventions for Latino male couples have yet to be tested. The study examined the feasibility and acceptability of the Connecting Latinos en Pareja (CLP) intervention, a couples-based HIV prevention intervention for Latino male couples. This pilot demonstrated high feasibility, meeting targets for recruitment, retention, and intervention completion. We recruited …
Utilizing Community Based Participatory Research Methods in Black/African American and Hispanic/Latinx Communities in the US
Using the Meaningful Involvement of People Living with HIV/Aids (Mipa) Framework to Assess the Engagement of Sexual Minority Men of Color in the US HIV Response
The Use of Photovoice Methodology to Assess Health Needs and Identify Opportunities Among Migrant Transgender Women in the U.S.-Mexico Border
Psychosocial, social and structural conditions have rarely been studied among transgender women in the U.S.-Mexico Border. This study used Photovoice methodology to empower migrant transgender women of color (TWC) to reflect on realities from their own perspectives and experiences and promote critical dialogue, knowledge, and community action. Sixteen participants documented their daily experiences through photography, engaged in photo-discussion…

Secondarily, this study examines whether marijuana use and problem drinking mediate the relations. Participants were 125 Black MSM recruited from neighborhoods in Eastern Cape Province, South Africa.

Immigration Legal Services as a Structural HIV Intervention for Latinx Sexual and Gender Minorities
Long-term health outcomes of childhood sexual abuse and peer sexual contact among an urban sample of behaviourally bisexual Latino men
While previous research indicates high rates of childhood sexual abuse among Latino men who have sex with men, few studies have examined the long-term health outcomes of childhood sexual abuse specifically among behaviourally bisexual Latino men. In a sample of 148 behaviourally bisexual Latino men in New York City, we examined associations between childhood sexual abuse and multiple dimensions of adult health: sexual risk behaviours; sexually tr…

Latino men who have sex with transgender women
Latino men who have sex with transgender women make up an overlooked sector of the population that requires more attention than is currently given in sexuality and gender studies, particularly in regard to their non-commercial, long-term sexual and romantic relationships with transgender women. Sixty-one sexual histories were selected for this qualitative analysis from a larger study on Latino male bisexuality in the New York City metropolitan ar…
The Impact of Local Immigration Enforcement Policies on the Health of Immigrant Hispanics/Latinos in the United States

Using Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) to Develop a Community-Level HIV Prevention Intervention for Latinas
Community involvement among behaviourally bisexual men in the Midwestern USA
Limited research exists regarding community involvement and social support among behaviourally bisexual men. Previous studies suggest that bisexual men experience high levels of social stigma in both heterosexual and homosexual community settings. Research focusing on social support has demonstrated that individuals with limited access to similar individuals experience greater risk for negative health outcomes. Using a community-based research de…

Evaluating the Impact of Immigration Policies on Health Status Among Undocumented Immigrants
HIV practitioners in Madrid and New York improving inclusion of underrepresented populations in research
Practitioners have frequent contact with populations underrepresented in scientific research--ethnic/racial groups, sexual minorities and others at risk for poor health and whose low participation in research does not reflect their representation in the general population. Practitioners aspire to partner with researchers to conduct research that benefits underrepresented groups. However, practitioners are often overlooked as a work force that can…
The ecology of sexual health of sexual minorities in Guatemala City
Guatemalan gay and bisexual men, men who have sex with men (MSM), and transgender persons carry disproportionate burden of HIV and other sexually transmitted infections compared with other Guatemalan subgroups. However, little is known about the determinants of sexual health to inform health promotion and disease prevention interventions among these sexual minorities. We sought to explore sexual health and HIV risk among Guatemalan sexual minorit…

The triangulation approach was used to synthesize data from 176 MSM who completed an in-person or phone questionnaire about substance use, alcohol consumption, sexual behaviors, and HIV/S…
Syndemic factors associated with drinking patterns among Latino men and Latina transgender women who have sex with men in New York City
Alcohol consumption is a significant public health concern among Latino men and Latina transgender women who have sex with men.
