Effectiveness of Peer Navigation to Link Released HIV+ Jail Inmates to HIV Care — LINK LA  

HIV-infection/Aids Clinical Trial

Official title:
Effectiveness of Peer Navigation to Link Released HIV+ Jail Inmates to HIV Care

Clinical Trial Summary

This study will implement a peer navigation intervention to improve linkage to and retention in HIV care for inmates released from L.A. county jail into the community.

Clinical Trial Description

The proposed study has two Primary Specific Aims: 1. To examine individual-level and structural-level barriers to HIV care after release from jail, using formative semi-structured interviews with ex-inmates, case managers, and HIV care providers; and to use the information we obtain to inform the adaptation and tailoring of an intervention designed to improve linkage with and retention to HIV care for HIV+ ex-inmates (Complete); 2. Using a two-group experimental RCT design, to test the adapted peer navigation intervention condition for HIV+ inmates upon release from jail compared to a usual care condition, and to evaluate the intervention's effectiveness at improving linkage with and retention in HIV care, self-reported ART adherence, and HIV RNA viral load suppression; The intervention is hypothesized to result in greater linkage to care, a greater proportion completing at least three HIV care visits per year, increased self-reported ART adherence, and decreased levels of HIV RNA viral load compared to the usual care control group. Secondary Aims of the study include assessing the potential moderating effects of substance abuse, the potential mediating effects of substance abuse treatment, and the program's effects on recidivism, and costs. Active substance abuse is hypothesized to moderate the effect of the intervention, such that the intervention will be less effective among participants who report substance use. ;
