Abstract
The rate of AIDS transmission through gay contact is 1.7 times greater for Latinos than for Whites, while among bisexual men the relative risk for Latinos is 2.5 times higher. Yet, Latino men who have sex with men remain a poorly understood population. This paper describes the Latino Gay Men's Health Project, an anthropologically informed effort to reduce AIDS risk among Latinos by: ethnographically documenting risk patterns; using community outreach to recruit project participants; and, enrolling participants in a community based program designed to assist them in enhancing positive identities as Latino gay bisexual men, acquiring and using AIDS prevention information/skills, and building social support.
