Proposed Project 

Formative Research to inform the 

development of new recommendations 

for Human Immunodeficiency Virus 

(HIV), Counseling, Testing, and Referral 

in non-health care settings—NewNational Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral 

Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention 

(NCHHSTP), Coordinating Center for 

Infectious Diseases (CCID), Centers for 

Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

This project involves formative 

research to elicit consumer opinions on 

HIV counseling, testing, and referral 

(CTR) in non-health care settings. The 

study entails conducting focus groups 

with persons who are either HIV 

positive or at risk for HIV because of 

their drug injection or sexual behavior. 

The purpose of the focus groups is to 

explore: (1) Facilitators and barriers to 

using CTR services in non-health care 

settings; (2) ideal service components to 

decrease barriers to early diagnosis, 

decrease risk behaviors, link clients 

with follow-up care, and ensure client 

rights; (3) perceived risks and benefits of 

CTR; and (4) preferences for providing 

informed consent. 

CDC will use study findings to inform 

the development of new 

recommendations for HIV CTR in nonhealth care settings. We expect a total of 

450 participants to be screened for 

eligibility. Of the 450 participants who 

are screened, we expect that 180 people 

will participate in a focus group. There 

are no costs to the respondents other 

than their time.
