A Group Level Approach to Reduce HIV and STIs in Women of Color Residing in Low-Income and Transitional Housing in the Urban South
Black women at are increased risk HIV of infection compared to women in general. In 2022 in Alabama, over half of HIV people living with HIV were Black, almost a quarter were women, and 1 in 5 were unaware of their status. This data supports a need for HIV prevention interventions among youth and adults in the state. in 2024, The UAB Family Clinic introduced a new project based on the CDC intervention known as “Sister To Sister”, a one on one HIV testing and education session aimed at women color. The UAB Family clinic adapted this intervention for a small group setting to better accommodate the needs of the local population, and held 5 events across the Birmingham, AL metropolitan area.
