The Women-Centered Program for Women of Color, a culturally congruent sexual health intervention, was implemented in 2018 in Los Angeles County, California, according to the principles of community-based participatory research: enhancing community capacity, establishing sustainable programs, and translating research findings to community settings. Participants exhibited significantly increased knowledge of and interest in preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and postexposure prophylaxis (PEP) over time, but no significant change in condom use was evident. Booster sessions are needed to maintain interest in PrEP and PEP given concerns about reproductive and sexual health. (. 2023;113(S2):S110-S114. https://doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2023.307296).
根据社区参与式研究的原则,“以妇女为中心的有色人种妇女计划”于 2018 年在加利福尼亚州洛杉矶县实施,该计划是一种文化上一致的性健康干预措施:增强社区能力、建立可持续的项目,并将研究结果转化为社区环境。随着时间的推移,参与者对暴露前预防 (PrEP) 和暴露后预防 (PEP) 的了解和兴趣显著增加,但明显没有改变 condom 的使用。鉴于对生殖和性健康的担忧,需要开展强化课程来保持对 PrEP 和 PEP 的兴趣。(. 2023;113(S2):S110-S114. https://doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2023.307296)。
