Trauma-Informed HIV Care Interventions: Towards a Holistic Approach.

Recent studies suggest that a trauma-informed approach to developing interventions may help to improve treatment outcomes, such as engagement in care and adherence to ART. However, studies have also shown that depending on the operationalization of usual care, a trauma-informed approach may result in similar outcomes. Very few studies have examined the impact of trauma-informed interventions on HIV care and treatment outcomes. Additional research is needed on the acceptability, feasibility, and efficacy of trauma-informed interventions among affected populations such as older adults, and racial/ethnic and sexual minorities living with HIV.
