SISTER-TO-SISTER: GROUP SKILLS-BUILDING

Public Domain
  • 01/15/2020



Details

  • Description:
    Sister-to-Sister includes two skills-building interventions – Group (Best-evidence) or Oneon-one (Best-evidence). These skills-building interventions are culturally-sensitive, genderappropriate, single-session interventions developed to increase self-efficacy and skills to use condoms correctly and to negotiate condom use with sex partners. The interventions encourage women to respect and protect themselves, not only for their own sake, but also for their family and community. The interventions are delivered by female AfricanAmerican nurses and can be delivered to small groups of women (3-5 women) or individuals. Both group and one-on-one formats involve video viewing, condom demonstration, practice with an anatomical model, and role playing to increase self-efficacy and skills to negotiate condom use. The additional activities used in the group format include group discussions, brainstorming, and interactive exercises and games.
