2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Immediate InterventionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The intervention condition builds on our community partners' existing microeconomic intervention of: (1) a one-time emergency cash grant and (2) peer and legal support to obtain legal gender affirmation - plus a 12-week microeconomic intervention that adds: (3) weekly educational sessions and HIV prevention; (4) community mentoring; and (5) weekly posts of job openings in Detroit; and (6) a micro-grant for use towards acquiring self-led or formal employment
Group II: Delayed ArmActive Control1 Intervention
Participants randomized to the control condition will receive UC during the 12-week period following randomization. Usual care consists of emergency assistance and access to legal name/gender marker change. After the RCT follow-up period is complete, waitlist control participants will be offered delayed access to the same intervention that is provided immediately to intervention arm participants.
