About this trial
By combining two strategies (i.e., peer navigation and mHealth) into a complete, culturally compatible, bilingual intervention to increase the use of needed HIV, STI, and HCV prevention and care services among racially/ethnically diverse GBMSM and transgender women in rural Appalachia.
Study Investigators anticipate that participants in the intervention group, relative to counterparts in the delayed-intervention group, will demonstrate increased HIV, STI, and HCV testing.
