Helping Ugandan young women stay engaged in HIV care
Part of Immune system & allergy, Infections, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a couples-focused program to help HIV-positive adolescent girls and young women stay connected to HIV clinic visits and medicines. It may help if you’re currently not well engaged in HIV care or you’ve faced partner violence or controlling behavior.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman age 18–24 (or a 15–17 emancipated minor).

- You are not currently engaged in HIV care (for example, not enrolled in a clinic, not taking ART, missed in-person clinic visits, low recent adherence, or recent viral load tests are high/unknown).
- You have experienced at least one incident of intimate partner violence or controlling behavior from your current male partner (based on self-report).
- Your male partner agrees to be contacted by research staff, and both of you live together/married and plan to stay in the area for the study period (including next few months).
