Abstract
SUMMARY This article discusses the Enhanced Innovative Case Management Program of CCHER, Inc., a community-based agency serving Boston's immigrant Haitian population living with HIV/AIDS. A psychosocial educational counseling program of 25 topics was created to address psychosocial needs of Haitian HIV consumers. Counseling sessions are one-to-one, in Haitian Creole. A pre-post evaluation design assesses the effectiveness of the curriculum in relation to the objectives of the project. The project has allowed CCHER to identify complex substance abuse issues and as a result has enabled the agency to address substance abuse among Haitians and plan culturally appropriate educational, outreach, and counseling strategies for Haitian substance abusers and community members.
