Transgender women's experiences using a home HIV-testing kit for partner-testing.
HIV partner-testing (PT) may represent a unique and empowering HIV prevention strategy for groups that face structural and institutional barriers to HIV testing and care, including transgender women. In this study, the investigators reported on in-depth interviews (IDIs) with transgender women who used HIV self-test kits for three months to screen potential sexual partners in a randomized controlled trial that took place in New York City and San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Exploring group composition among young, urban women of color in prenatal care: implications for satisfaction, engagement, and group attendance.
The current investigation aimed to explore associations between prenatal care group composition with patient satisfaction, engagement, and group attendance among young, urban women of color. It found that women in groups with others more diverse in age reported greater patient engagement and, in turn, attended more group sessions.
