Unlocking success: community engagement for enhanced HIV care outcomes.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Though social determinants are the primary drivers of health, few studies of people living with HIV focus on non-clinical correlates of insecure and/or fragmented connections with the care system. Our team uses linked clinical and multisector non-clinical data to study how residential mobility and connection to social services influence the HIV care continuum. We engage a diverse group of individuals living with HIV and other invested community members to guide and inform this research. Our objective is to generate consultant-informed, research-based interventions that are relevant to the community, and to share our engagement approach and findings so that other researchers can do the same.

Methods

Our research team partnered with the Indiana Clinical and Translat
