Abstract
Despite advances in HIV care and treatment in the U.S., disparities in outcomes along the HIV care continuum persist. The widespread replication of effective and sustainable interventions that prioritize the engagement of underserved populations has been identified as a promising path to ending the HIV epidemic in the U.S. Intervention dissemination products, however, rarely provide the comprehensive and accessible information needed to replicate interventions within community settings. To bridge the divide between research and community-based implementation, the Using Evidence-informed Interventions to Improve Health Outcomes among People Living with HIV (E2i) initiative-grounded in the HIV/AIDS Bureau Implementation Science Framework-created a suite of tools to promote the rapid replication of interventions focused on transgender women, Black men who have sex with men, behavioral health integration, and identifying and addressing trauma. The resulting dissemination products are detailed and digestible multimedia toolkits that follow adult learning theory principles and align with the Template for Intervention Description and Replication criteria for adapting non-pharmacological interventions. Each E2i toolkit consists of five components: implementation guides, narrative videos of site implementation, best practice demonstration videos, interactive learning modules, and recruitment posters and brochures. Over 2 years (2022-2024), the E2i toolkit webpages amassed 7703 unique users and 17,666 pageviews. These toolkits can serve as a blueprint for designing comprehensive and accessible dissemination products for replication of HIV interventions in care settings. Dissemination products that bridge the gap between intervention research and replication in community settings are a crucial missing tool for ending the HIV epidemic.
