Readiness to Disclose Mother's HIV Diagnosis to Their Children in Beijing, China

Specific aims of the 1-year project are to pilot test the disclosure support intervention by (a) evaluating acceptability and feasibility with a preliminary randomized trial among 10 HIV+ mothers (5 in the intervention group and 5 in the treatment as usual (TAU) group) and (b) assessing outcomes in mothers (quality of life and mental health indicators, adherence, social support, and disclosure stress, efficacy, readiness, and completion). The intervention will be compared to treatment as usual, with baseline (0 weeks), immediate post-intervention (4 weeks), and 12-week follow-up (16 weeks) assessments.
