Latino/a Community-level Strategies for Resilience and Engagement in HIV Care
Short-term engagement in HIV care outcomes among Latino/as have improved, but long-term and sustained engagement in HIV care is an ongoing challenge. To solve this challenge, we propose a mixed method study to identify Latino/a community-levels of resilience for sustaining engagement in HIV care.
In a resilience framework, there are discernable strategies (i.e., skills, knowledge, resources, empowerment) that Latino/as learn to use to successfully engage in HIV care. This study builds on an existing partnership with a Latino/a community-based organization and a program of research focused on engagement in HIV care.
