About

This study will refine and pilot test the Peer-led Dynamic Choice HIV Prevention (DCP) intervention in a single-arm pilot trial. The study will test the hypothesis that the Peer-led Dynamic Choice HIV Prevention intervention will be feasible and increase biomedical HIV prevention coverage in the 6 months after receipt of the Peer-led DCP intervention compared to the standard of care in the 6 months prior to intervention implementation.

Full description

The overall goal of this study is to refine and pilot test a Peer-led Dynamic Choice HIV Prevention intervention tailored to women at elevated HIV risk in southwestern Uganda. We will conduct a single-arm pilot trial of the intervention enrolling approximately 60 women to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effectiveness of the Peer-led Dynamic Choice Prevention intervention.
