Violence experience among cis-gender women living with HIV in Atlanta, Georgia: impact on HIV-related health and their preferences for violence screening and support
Multiple forms of violence are highly prevalent among CWLH, with several found to be associated with mental health and HIV outcomes. This highlights the necessity for a trauma-informed approach within HIV care settings. Healthcare professionals should consider the unique needs and preferences of CWLH when screening for violence and providing support services. Doing so may improve mental, physical, and overall well-being throughout the HIV care continuum.
