The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is inviting public comments on a proposed information collection project focused on HIV prevention for Latina transgender women who have sex with men. The project, named ChiCAS, aims to evaluate a locally developed intervention designed to promote condom use, pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), and medically supervised hormone therapy. The study will involve a quantitative assessment and interviews to measure participants' HIV risk behaviors and the intervention's effectiveness in improving health outcomes. The CDC is following the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 to seek feedback and approval for this proposed data collection.
Simple Explanation
The CDC has a plan to help Latina transgender women stay healthy by teaching them about safe practices to avoid HIV. They want people to share their thoughts about this plan and how it might help people in the future.
