Interventions

  • SUCCESS-E — BEHAVIORAL
    SUCCESS-E is a previously developed intervention based on the evidence-based Antiretroviral Treatment and Access to Services (ARTAS) intervention, modified for those detained within a jail system. It is a manualized six-session program delivered by a case management team, composed of a professional case manager and paraprofessional peer navigators. In Jail Sessions: 1. Build Trust 2. Assess Strengths 3. Explore life on ART Post-Release Sessions: 4. Link with care 5. Enhance self-efficacy for HIV care/PrEP 6. Future transitions
  • Enhanced Standard of Care — BEHAVIORAL
    A list of referral sites for follow-up SUD care will be shared. This information sharing without strength-based, longitudinal case management will be an enhancement to treatment as usual. Also, information about HIV/PrEP follow-up in the community will be placed around the jail, such as affixed to the nurses' medication carts that they push from housing unit to unit, twice a day when residents are due for prescription medications.
  • Key Informant Interviews — BEHAVIORAL
    Key informant interviews (KII) will be conducted with jail staff and community stakeholders in the R61 phase to examine perceptions, barriers, and facilitators to SUD and HIV/PrEP service and treatment utilization, as well as document the experiences of SUCCESS-E participants from the pilot phase.

Study Details

This study will test a behavioral intervention with a case manager/peer navigator team pairing with clients to deliver transition planning services. The interactions help clients recognize and use their strengths. The goal is to see if this approach improves clients' ability to access healthcare and drug treatment after being released from jail.
