Appalachian Partnership to Reduce Disparities (Aim 2)
This study is looking at ways to increase testing for HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus), STIs (Sexually Transmitted Infections), and HCV (Hepatitis C Virus) in rural Appalachia. It tests two approaches: "Peer Navigation," where community health leaders raise awareness and help people access services, and "mHealth," which uses mobile apps like Facebook or Instagram to communicate. You might be able to join if you are 18 or older, live in specific rural Appalachian counties, and identify as male at birth and have had sex with at least one man in the past 12 months. The study aims to see if these interventions lead to more people getting tested for HIV, STIs, and HCV.
