What this research studies
This research focuses on involving young people living with HIV (YPLWH) in Florida to address issues related to alcohol use. The Community Engagement Core (CEC) aims to create partnerships between researchers, YPLWH, and key stakeholders to ensure that research findings are effectively translated into practice. By utilizing community engagement strategies, the project will develop tailored advertisements and online content to recruit participants and refine research protocols based on stakeholder feedback. The goal is to enhance the efficiency of recruitment and retention processes across multiple studies.
Who could benefit from this research
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this research are young people living with HIV who may be struggling with alcohol use.
Not a fit: Patients who do not have HIV or are not experiencing issues related to alcohol use may not benefit from this research.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this research could lead to improved interventions for alcohol use among young people living with HIV, ultimately enhancing their health outcomes.
How similar studies have performed: Previous research has shown success in community engagement approaches to address health issues among marginalized populations, indicating potential for this project's success.
