Presentation Outline ∆ Purpose of action planning workshop ∆ Steps to formulate action plan ∆ Next steps following the workshop
Purpose of Action Planning Workshop ∆ Inform community about local PLACE assessment findings ∆ Improve understanding of findings through discussion with those who know community best ∆ Generate renewed local interest in HIV prevention ∆ Develop an action plan
Purpose: Development of Action Plan ∆ Identifying activities that can be initiated at community level without additional resources ∆ Identifying what activities are of the highest priority if additional funding can be obtained
Workshop Itinerary: Steps to Formulate Action Plan ∆ Review PLACE method and procedures ∆ Review PLACE results from <PPA> ∆ Discussion groups review key findings ∆ Develop recommendations based on the key findings
Workshop Itinerary: Steps to Formulate Action Plan 1. Prepare a Matrix of existing programs and activities 2. Prepare action plans for filling obvious gaps 3. Agree on a timetable for activities 4. Revise the local AIDS strategic plan as needed
Next Steps ∆ Update the PLACE Report based on feedback received during the workshop ∆ Insert Action Plan ∆ Present a revised PLACE report at a national workshop of HIV/AIDS prevention stakeholders

Presentation Overview ∆ <Country> Background ∆ Description of <PPA> ∆ Review of PLACE Method ∆ Findings from PLACE Assessment in <PPA> – Step 2 methods and results – Step 3 methods and results – Step 4 methods and results ∆ Summary
PLACE – St. James, Jamaica A Joint Initiative of: ∆ MEASURE Evaluation, Carolina Population Centre, University of North Carolina ∆ Jamaican Ministry of Health – National STI/HIV/AIDS Prevention & Control Programme ∆ Western Regional Health Authority ∆ St. James Public Health Department
Country Background
JAMAICA ∆ ∆ ∆ Island nation in Caribbean Sea Population – 2. 5 million Divided into 14 parishes Estimated 24, 000 People living with HIV/AIDS HIV prevalence – 1. 5% of adult population National cumulative AIDS case rate: 252/100, 000 persons (1982 -2002)
JAMAICA – AIDS Case Rates
Description of Priority Prevention Area (PPA)
<Name of PPA where PLACE was Conducted> ∆ ∆ A parish in western Jamaica Population – 175, 000 Tourism capital of Jamaica Parish capital – Montego Bay Why was PLACE conducted in <PPA>? ? ?
HIV Epidemic in <PPA> ∆ Highest AIDS case rate in Jamaica: 607 per 100, 000 (> 2 x national rate) ∆ 1 in 30 pregnant women are HIV infected (1. 5 x national rate) ∆ Factors driving epidemic in St. James not fully understood ∆ Need for cost-effective way of focusing HIV prevention interventions where may achieve greatest impact
Quick Review of PLACE Method
PLACE Initiative Rationale: Urgent need for tools to focus local HIV/AIDS prevention Objectives: ∆ To identify WHERE to target interventions ∆ To monitor interventions in target areas Strategy: ∆ Identify areas likely to have high HIV incidence ∆ Within these areas, focus prevention at venues where new sexual partnerships are formed
PLACE Method Overview 1 Identify areas of likely high HIV incidence 2 -4 Conduct rapid assessment in each area 2 Identify venues where people meet new partners 3 Visit, characterize, map all venues 4 Confirm high partnership formation rates at venues 5 Use results to improve programs
Study Strengths ∆ Rapid implementation; reasonable cost ∆ Study strategy minimized reliance on selfreported behaviors through use of community informants and venue verification process ∆ Study provides indicators useful for identifying priority venues for targeted intervention and for monitoring and evaluation
Study Limitations ∆ Sexual behavior and condom use are difficult to measure and can be under-/over-reported ∆ People younger than 18 not interviewed ∆ Self-reported data biased
<PPA> PLACE Findings
Step 2 Community Informant Interviews ∆ Community informants are asked: Where do people meet new sexual partners? ∆ Types of community informants: Taxi drivers, hairdressers, bar/restaurant employees, people on street, youth, others
Step 2 Community Informants Report Venues ∆ 12 interviewers reached 560 informants in 4 days ∆ 1, 897 venue or event reports ∆ 419 venues and events were reported within St. James ∆ Refusal rate - 17%
Step 2: Types of Community Informants
Step 3: 288 Venues Visited
Characteristics of Venues Obtained from on-site interviews: Prevention ∆ Type of venue ∆ Condom availability ∆ Evidence of HIV/AIDS prevention ∆ Busy times ∆ Maximum occupancy ∆ Venue stability Patrons ∆ Male: Female ratio ∆ Regular patrons ∆ Where patrons reside ∆ Whether patrons include commercial sex workers, gay, IDUs, youth, ∆ Whether people meet new partners at the venue
Findings: Sex Partners Meet at Venues
Findings: Prevalence of Other Activities at Venues
Findings: HIV/STI Prevention at Venues
Step 4: Interview Persons Socializing at Venues ∆ Opinion: Do people come here to meet new partners? ∆ Behavior: Ever met a new partner at venue? Use condoms? Traded sex for money? ∆ Sociodemographic and behavioral characteristics ∆ Number of new and total partners in the past four weeks and past year ∆ Exposure to HIV/STI prevention intervention
Sampling Methodology for Step 4 Representative sample of all venues verified: ∆ Selected randomly ∆ <List the types of venues that were randomly selected in your PPA. For example, in Jamaica these were mostly bars, churches, commercial areas. > Special sample of most popular venues: ∆ All venues named by <X> or more community informants ∆ <List types of most popular venues in your PPA. In Jamaica, these included street dance, nightclubs, gogo clubs, malls, public areas (library, squares, streets). >
Patrons Interviewed in Step 4 Average age: Men 32, women 31 Unemployed: men 12%, women 33% Average years of education: 13 Refusal rate: 13%
Patron Venue Visiting Behavior in Step 4
Sexual Partners at Venues
Patron Sexual Behavior: Exchanging Sex for Money and Sex with Non-Residents
Patron Condom Use
Patron Exposure to HIV/AIDS Prevention, Past 3 Months
On-site Patron Exposure to HIV/AIDS Prevention in Past 3 months
In Summary…. Main Questions to Answer: Answers: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
Gaps between Condom Availability, Programs, and New Partnerships at Venues
What can be done about this unmet need?
Good News!! Venues Are Willing to Have HIV Prevention Programs According to venue representatives: ∆ 81% of venues are willing to have HIV/AIDS/STI prevention programs ∆ 49% of venues are willing to sell condoms
Way Forward – PLACE in <Country> …. . ∆ Results shared with HIV/AIDS control program staff island-wide ∆ Since then PLACE methodology has been implemented in 3 other parishes ∆ St. James: venue-based vs. community-based targeted HIV prevention intervention – moving toward a more structured approach
Next Steps in Action Planning Workshop: 1. Review PLACE process and procedures 2. Review PLACE findings in <PPA> 3. Develop recommendations based on the key findings 4. Prepare a matrix of existing programs and activities 5. Prepare action plan for filling obvious gaps 6. Agree on a timetable for activities 7. Revise the local AIDS strategic plan as needed
