  5. Let’s hear from the audience! • Poll: What is your main role with self-management programs? • Poll: What populations do your programs serve now?

  6. Presenters • John Motter – Speakers Bureau Coordinator, Cascade AIDS Project Leads HIV Basic and Positive Self Management Programs

  7. Presenters • Catherine Potter – Eastside Program Director, Parish Health Promoter Program Coordinates trained Latino immigrant volunteers from faith communities who carry out programs, including Tomando Control de suSalud

  8. Community characteristics Parish Health Promoter Program serves: • Low-income Latino immigrants in Portland • Focus on faith communities • Health promoters are dedicated volunteers from participating parishes • “Tomando Control” classes are 1 of several regular ongoing activities

  9. Community characteristics – Tomando Control participants • Most participants are working adults • People hear about classes through word of mouth and through their churches • Less than half of participants “register” ahead of time • Important that class is free, food is provided • Sometimes childcare is needed

  10. Successful recruitment – Tomando Control • Volunteers and past participants are best spokespeople • Promote class at health screening events • Explain class well • Communicate what they will gain from it • Location is key

  11. Successful recruitment – Tomando Control • Announcements at church are our best strategy • Personal contact with class leaders before class is important • Make use of community partners in recruiting • Partner with local clinics that don’t offer classes but want patients to attend

  12. Common Characteristics – People Living with HIV • Numerous co-morbidities (i.e. diabetes, bone density problems, Hepatitis C, etc.) • Medication adherence problems • Medication side effects • Mental Health and/or Substance Abuse (not all) • Disease discrimination and stigma

  13. Distinct Characteristics It’s some of the distinct characteristics that create barriers in engagement. • Males who identify as gay • Socio-Economic Status (Employed vs. Disability) • Heterosexual Women • Heterosexual Men • Intravenous Drug Users (IDU)

  14. Positive Self-Management Program • PSMP was first piloted in 1994 • 7 weeks instead of 6 weeks • In studies: • Improvements in symptoms • Significantly better medication adherence • Better HIV suppression in blood after 6 months • No more side effects than non-PSMP participants

  15. What should recruiters be aware of? • HIV+ individuals can benefit from attending CDSMP (Living Well) workshops if a PSMP workshop is not currently scheduled. • Evening workshops may be more effective in order to reach those individuals who still work • Many individuals aren’t likely to be clients of, or affiliated, with an HIV/AIDS organization • There can still a significant level of stigma associated with coming to a program sponsored by Cascade AIDS Project (CAP)

  16. What means of recruitment are likely to be successful? • Facebook and other social marketing • Personal connections with direct phone calls • Housing and Medical Case Managers • Mailings to CAP’s “Positive Directions” list • Marketing to a specific target group (i.e., Kid’s Connection, Women of Wisdom, Oregon Bears)

  17. What means of recruitment are likely to be unsuccessful? • Housing and Medical Case Managers • Individuals can feel pressured • Afraid of losing services for not attending (MYTH) • Mailings to CAP’s Positive Directions

  18. Participant retention – Tomando Control • Lots of phone contact important (between each class) • Make sure people understand class well before starting • Give out books at 2nd class • Explain incentives for workshop completion (certificate, book, gifts) at beginning

  19. Materials – Tomando Control • Flyers serve as reminders (date, time, place) • Flyers should include photos with variety of ages • Make sure language is appropriate for group • (sample flyer)

  21. Retention is an Issue for PSMP • Retention rates have ranged from 25% to 70% • Newer workshops have been at the higher range • Improved due to: • Better screening of participants at time of sign-up • Targeted audience workshops • Gift card incentives each week (insure that everyone has received one by final day) • Providing food and/or child care
