Description:Safer Sex Skills Building (SSSB) is a group intervention consisting of 5 sessions, approximately 90 minutes each, designed to increase HIV/STD risk awareness, condom use, and partner negotiation skills of women attending community outpatient drug treatment programs. Two female counselors deliver the intervention to groups of 3-8 women over 3 weeks, using active problem solving, behavioral modeling, role-play rehearsal, interval practice, troubleshooting, and peer feedback and support. Topics include HIV transmission, testing and counseling, prevention and treatment; personal risk assessment and awareness, triggers, and support; skills for condom use, safer sex negotiation, and safety planning; partner abuse risk assessment; and “slip” behaviors. Special emphasis is placed on women’s safer sex negotiation skills and safeguards against the risk of partner abuse that may result from safer sex assertiveness.
