Summary

This study is testing a group-based support program to help young sexual and gender minority people (ages 18-24) in Rio de Janeiro take their HIV medication consistently. The program includes four sessions that focus on building social support, self-confidence, and problem-solving skills. The goal is to see if the program is feasible and acceptable, and whether it improves medication adherence.
