Evaluating the Cultural Adaptation of Evidence-Based HIV Prevention Interventions for African Immigrant Women: Exploratory Pilot Mixed-Methods Study
African-born Black women living in the US experience markedly higher rates of HIV diagnosis than their US-born counterparts, with condom use and PrEP remaining underutilized despite their effectiveness. Existing HIV prevention interventions for African-born Black women are limited in scope; some lack cultural tailoring, linguistic appropriateness, and most not do include PrEP. Using the ADAPT-ITT model, we culturally adapted two evidence-based interventions for US Black women–Sister-to-Sister and Sisters Informing Sisters about Topics on AIDS (SISTA)–to increase condom use and PrEP uptake among African-born Black women through community stakeholder input. DADA, which was adapted from SISTA, consists of two 3-hour peer-led, group-level intervention and Dada kwa Dada (DKD), adapted from Sister-to-Sister, is a 1-hour individual-level intervention. To test feasibility and acceptability, 29 African-born women without HIV were recruited from social media groups and community partner listservs in Massachusetts and New York; 17 were randomized to DKD and 12 to DADA. Participants completed risk assessments at baseline and provided post-intervention feedback interviews and surveys. Both adapted interventions demonstrated high feasibility and acceptability, with participants expressing positive qualitative and quantitative feedback regarding their culturally appropriateness, and relevance.This study addresses critical gaps in tailored HIV prevention approaches for African-born Black women and paves the way for future trials to improve condom use and PrEP in this population. Next steps are to conduct a fully-powered comparative effectiveness trial to assess the relative impact of both interventions on increased condom use and uptake of PrEP.
