Study Summary

This trial will test a violence prevention intervention specifically tailored for the Black House Ball Community, a subculture of the Black gay community that is particularly at-risk for HIV infection.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for self-identified Black individuals aged 15-29 who are part of the House Ball Community (HBC) and attend HBC events. It focuses on young gay, bisexual men, and transgender women within this group who are at high risk for HIV/AIDS and affected by violence.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The #ChopViolence/#ChopHIV intervention aims to reduce violence in the HBC to improve access to HIV services. The program adapts the Cure Violence model, training members as Violence Interrupters or Outreach Workers to prevent violence and assist with HIV care linkage.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this is a behavioral intervention focusing on community engagement rather than a medical treatment, traditional side effects associated with medications are not applicable. However, participants may experience emotional or social impacts due to discussions around sensitive topics like violence and HIV.
