This grant is for advancing research to improve HIV prevention and care for high-risk sexual and gender minorities (SGM). It aims to better integrate substance use interventions and address critical social determinants of health, including homelessness and criminal justice involvement, which disproportionately affect SGM populations. The initiative supports epidemiologic, intervention, and implementation research that views HIV as a syndemic, encompassing comorbidities such as STIs, HCV, and psychiatric disorders. Furthermore, it emphasizes incorporating emergent interventions like long-acting PrEP and considering the implications of changing SGM self-definition and provider stigma. The goal is to enhance engagement and retention in HIV prevention and care services for these vulnerable populations.

| Description: | Substance use needs to be better incorporated into interventions for the engagement and retention of sexual minority persons in prevention and care with attention to emergent interventions such as long-acting PrEP. Social determinants of health associated with HIV and problematic substance use such as homelessness and criminal justice involvement also demonstrate disproportionate impact among sexual and gender minorities and need attention. Changing self-definition of sexual minority status has implications for outreach and provider stigma and needs to be better integrated into interventions. This initiative will address these gap areas and support epidemiologic, intervention, and implementation research that incorporates attention to HIV as a syndemic including comorbidities such as STIs, HCV, and psychiatric disorder. |
