The K6G unit of Los Angeles Men's Central Jail is comprised of males who have sex with males (MSM), whether gay, bisexual, or transgender. Within this unit, condoms are distributed to inmates, one condom per week. The current study was conducted to better understand the experiences and opinions of jail staff as they pertain to the condom distribution program's effectiveness and impact on jail safety and management. A total of 10 staff interviews were conducted with the unit's line staff (n = 8) and administrative personnel (n = 2). Findings suggest that despite the contradictory "mixed message" that jail staff felt the program sent, it causes few operational or safety concerns and is perceived to be beneficial to public health.
洛杉矶男子中央监狱的K6G监区关押的是与男性发生性行为的男性（MSM），包括男同性恋者、双性恋者或跨性别者。在这个监区内，每周会给囚犯发放避孕套，每人一个。本研究旨在更好地了解监狱工作人员对于避孕套发放项目的效果以及对监狱安全与管理的影响的经历和看法。研究共对该监区的一线工作人员（8人）和行政人员（2人）进行了10次访谈。结果表明，尽管监狱工作人员觉得该项目传递了自相矛盾的“复杂信息”，但它几乎没有引发运营或安全方面的担忧，且被认为对公共健康有益。
