• Description:
  Project LifeSkills is a group-level intervention. It includes six sessions to communicate basic HIV risk and transmission information, develop motivation to protect oneself, and promote behavioral skills (e.g., condom use and assertive communication, including sexual partner communication and negotiation) through an empowerment-based approach. A “House of Life Skills” theme is used throughout the sessions to build a sense of community, complete with “House Rules” of behavior, participation, safety and respect. Sessions include information on Trans Pride and skills building to better equip participants to advocate for themselves, promote access to services like medical care and housing, and develop a personal action plan that helps to minimize their HIV risk.
