Prime Time Sister Circles: Adapting a Culturally Relevant Intervention for Black Women With HIV

Prime Time Sister Circles (PTSC), an intervention developed for Black women, was adapted for Black women with HIV. A subset of enrollees in two bundled interventions for Black women with HIV participated in PTSC. Health indicators were collected at baseline, six months, and 12 months. Blood pressure, hemoglobin A1C, viral suppression, CD4 counts, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol improved for 14 PTSC participants. PTSC participants' health indicator improvements show that bundled interventions are promising. (<i>Am J Public Health</i>. 2025;115(S1):S18-S21. https://doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2024.307869).

Abstract

Prime Time Sister Circles (PTSC), an intervention developed for Black women, was adapted for Black women with HIV. A subset of enrollees in two bundled interventions for Black women with HIV participated in PTSC. Health indicators were collected at baseline, six months, and 12 months. Blood pressure, hemoglobin A1C, viral suppression, CD4 counts, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol improved for 14 PTSC participants. PTSC participants' health indicator improvements show that bundled interventions are promising. (<i>Am J Public Health</i>. 2025;115(S1):S18-S21. https://doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2024.307869).
