The EMERGE Project: Feasibility of Assessing Economic and Sexual Risk Behaviors Using Text Messages in Young Adults

Feasibility Clinical Trial

Official title:
The Engaging Microenterprise for Resource Generation and Health Empowerment (EMERGE) Project: Feasibility of Assessing Economic and Sexual Risk Behaviors Using Text Messages in Homeless Young Adults

Clinical Trial Summary

As part of the development of the Engaging Microenterprise for Resource Generation and Health Empowerment (EMERGE) Project, the study team will conduct a single-group study to examine the feasibility of assessing economic and sexual risk behaviors using text messages. The team will enroll approximately 20 young adults, aged 18 to 24, who are African-American, homeless, out-of-school, and un/under-employed. Participants will complete a text-messaged survey each week for 5 weeks. The study team will collect information about the number of participants who respond to the weekly survey, the number of questions to which they respond in each survey, and the number of hours from sending a survey to participants to receiving their response. As an exploratory aim, participants will also receive 3 informational text messages each week for 5 weeks on HIV prevention and economic empowerment. The study team will obtain qualitative feedback from participants regarding text messages they most and least liked. The survey is not designed to evaluate the effectiveness of the text message intervention.
