• Description:
  Stronger Together is a combination of Couples HIV Testing and Counseling (CHTC) and dyadic medication adherence counseling through the Partner STEPS method that uses motivational interviewing to improve ART adherence for HIV positive individuals by creating strategies for couples to work together on shared goals. The STEPS component is a dyadic adaptation of Life Steps, an existing cognitive-behavioral intervention for individuals. Each session was designed to use relationship strengths to increase motivation for HIV care and treatment and cover sequential intervention “steps” relating to specific challenges in HIV care engagement and barriers to ART adherence.
