Proyecto SOL: A Risk Reduction Intervention for Hispanic Men Who Have Sex With Men (MSM)

The purpose of this project is to determine the acceptability, feasibility, and the preliminary efficacy of an HIV prevention behavioral intervention (Proyecto SOL) to reduce behaviors associated with HIV acquisition among Hispanic men who have sex with men (HMSM). The primary goal of the intervention is to motivate and assist participants in forming and carrying out a "Safer Options for Life" plan, thereby reducing their risk of HIV acquisition or transmission.
