尽管艾滋病毒/艾滋病在女性罪犯中的流行范围很大，但人们对这些妇女的危险行为知之甚少，更不知道如何减少这一人群中的艾滋病毒/艾滋病。本文描述了旨在降低吸毒女性罪犯艾滋病毒风险的八次小组认知-行为和社会支持增强干预的发展。？干预以社会认知理论为基础，并借鉴其他技能培训方法，证明了其在降低艾滋病毒风险方面的有效性。现在和以前的罪犯都参与了这种干预的发展。寻求帮助和社会支持技能是这项干预的独特之处，出狱后为加强向社区传授技能而进行的为期八个疗程的强化培训也是如此。
Despite the scope of the HIV/AIDS epidemic among female offenders, little is known about the risk behaviors of these women and even less about ways in which to reduce HIV/AIDS among this population. This article describes the development of an eight-session group cognitive-behavioral and social support enhancement intervention that aims to reduce HIV risk among drug-using female offenders. ?he intervention is based on social-cognitive theory and informed by other skills-training approaches with demonstrated efficacy at reducing HIV risk. Both current and former offenders were involved in the development of this intervention. Help-seeking and social support skills are unique to this intervention, as is an eight-session booster conducted after release from jail to enhance transfer of skills to the community.
