This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing a new support program designed to help young people with HIV take their antiretroviral therapy (ART) medications consistently. The program combines group counseling sessions with daily text message reminders, and it's tailored specifically for young sexual and gender minority people in Rio de Janeiro who struggle with taking their medication as prescribed.
Many young people with HIV in Brazil miss doses of their medication or don't take it exactly as prescribed, even though taking it consistently is essential to stay healthy and prevent the virus from spreading. This study exists because standard medication education alone isn't enough—researchers want to test whether adding social support, problem-solving skills, and daily reminders can help more young people stick to their treatment plan.

If you join this study, you will be placed in one of two groups. One group will receive the new support program, which includes four group counseling sessions where you'll meet with other young people and learn skills to help you take your medication consistently, plus you'll receive daily text messages as reminders. The other group will receive standard clinic care and basic medication education. Either way, you'll stay in the study long enough for researchers to see whether the program helps you stick to your medication routine.
