“…These interventions have been designed to increase: HIV testing; condom use; access to healthcare services, including medically supervised hormone replacement therapy services among transgender persons; and pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and antiretroviral therapy (ART) uptake and retention. Generally, we have followed steps of trust building; fostering collaborative co-learning networks with key stakeholders (e.g., community members, organization representatives, and academic researchers); and iteratively developing, pretesting, implementing, and evaluating interventions (Rhodes, Alonzo, Mann, Freeman, et al, 2015; Rhodes, Daniel, et al, 2013; Rhodes, Duck, Alonzo, Daniel, & Aronson, 2013; Rhodes, Duck, Alonzo, Downs, & Aronson, 2013; Rhodes et al, 2007; Rhodes et al, 2006). We often have created a Grid of Resources for Intervention Development (GRID), which outlines currently existing interventions that focus on a prioritized health outcome (e.g., condom use and HIV testing) and deconstructs how intervention activities meet objectives; assists in evaluating whether interventions and activities address community priorities; and initiates the process of thinking creatively and critically about novel intervention strategies, theories, logical model development, messages, and activities (Rhodes et al, 2007; Rhodes et al, 2006; Rhodes, Kelley, et al, 2012).…”
