  • Description:
    TLC (Together Learning Choices, previously referred to as Teens Linked to Care) is a smallgroup intervention designed for youth and young adults living with HIV. TLC consists of 2 modules: Stay Healthy and Act Safe. The Stay Healthy module consists of 12 sessions to promote positive health behaviors. Intervention sessions are focused on coping with learning one’s seropositive status, addressing issues of disclosure, and helping youth to implement new daily routines to stay healthy and actively participate in health care decisions. The Act Safe module consists of 11 sessions to increase self-protection and other-protection motivation to change behavior and to reduce substance use and unprotected sex acts. HIV-positive youth identify their risk behavior triggers and modify their patterns of substance use as well as increase self-efficacy of condom use and negotiation skills. The modules are delivered in sequence by male and female facilitators to mixed gender groups of HIV-positive youth. A feeling thermometer is used in each session to assist youth in identifying and controlling negative emotional states. Group discussions, role-play, video, exercises, and goal setting encourage the ability to effectively reach goals, solve problems, and effectively respond to stressful situations.
