Interventions

  • Culturally-tailored cognitive behavioral stress management — BEHAVIORAL
    The SmartManage CBSM intervention includes content that is of clinical relevance to sexual minority men dually diagnosed with HIV and cancer. Intervention content includes: co-management of HIV and cancer, strategies for self-advocacy, partnering with the health system and health providers, intimacy and disclosure concerns regarding both conditions, and contextual stressors (e.g., racial/ethnic minority status), stigmatization, assertiveness and communication skills, and self-efficacy in care coordination. Participants receive weekly 1.5 hour interactive group sessions online that focus on stress and self-management skill-building, and also receive access to didactic information regarding intervention content via the intervention website. Intervention length is 10 weeks. This intervention will be a version of SmartManage that is culturally-tailored for Latino populations.

Study Details

This is a one year study to develop and test a culturally-tailored, web-based cognitive behavioral stress management (CBSM) intervention for Latino sexual minority men living with both HIV and cancer. Sexual minority Latino men living with HIV and cancer experience a variety of health disparities related to their diagnoses, including higher distress. The project will use a single-group pre-post design. The project will use a community-based participatory research approach, and the investigators have included (and will continue to include) LGBT-serving community partners in all phases of the research from study design to implementation and dissemination of findings. The proposed study will aid in attenuating health disparities among Latino sexual minority men living with HIV and cancer.
