This project seeks to improve HIV prevention by collecting information from persons who do not access HIV testing in fixed testing venues or do not test as frequently as is recommended.

Proposed Project

    Behavioral Assessment Component of the Behavioral Assessment and 
Rapid Testing (BART) Project--New--National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral 
Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP), Centers for Disease 
Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    This Behavioral Assessment and Rapid Testing project involves 
conducting behavioral assessments and rapid HIV testing at a variety of 
events serving groups at high risk for acquiring or transmitting HIV 
infection. Behavioral assessments will be conducted using one protocol 
and one research agenda but at events serving different minority and 
hard-to-reach populations. This project will address the increasing 
rates of HIV infection among African Americans (AAs) and men who have 
sex with men as well as the need for early detection and linkage to 
health care for HIV-infected persons. The behavioral assessment 
component will provide the opportunity to describe the risk profiles 
and prevalence of unrecognized infection among individuals reachable 
for HIV counseling and testing at these events. Collected data will be 
used to develop risk reduction interventions that are appropriate for 
the attendees of future events that attract persons who may be at high 
risk for HIV infection.
    The purpose of the proposed data collection is to collect 
behavioral data at selected public events serving specific high-risk 
populations and to increase the proportion of at-risk persons who are 
aware of their HIV status. This project seeks to improve HIV prevention 
by collecting information from persons who do not access HIV testing in 
fixed testing venues or do not test as frequently as is recommended. 
The behavioral assessment component of the project addresses the need 
for increased behavioral data among some high-risk groups that are more 
difficult to access or represent increasingly greater proportions of 
the HIV epidemic.
    A convenience sample will be used to select attendees at (1) Gay 
Pride; (2) Minority Gay Pride; (3) black spring break; and (4) cultural 
and social events attracting large numbers of African Americans.
    Trained interviewers will select and approach event attendees. A

eligibility and obtain oral consent. Approximately 7,000 individuals
