Digital Intervention for HIV/STI/HCV Testing and Overdose Prevention in Sex Trafficking Survivors

This study is testing a new digital intervention created by survivors of sex trafficking. The goal is to see if these digital materials can help increase testing for HIV, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and hepatitis C virus (HCV), and encourage the use of overdose prevention kits among survivors of sex trafficking in New York City. You may be able to join if you are a woman, 18 or older, live in NYC, have used illicit substances recently or have a history of substance use dependency, feel safe participating, and are a survivor of sex trafficking. The study will measure how many people get tested and use overdose prevention kits over six months. The current recruitment status is unclear.
