Project Orleu: Reducing Intersectional and HIV Stigma Among Health Care Providers and High Risk Women Who Use Drugs in Kazakhstan

Providers in 10 HIV clinics participated in a 5 session anti-stigma health facility training focused on: 1) raising awareness about stigma and discrimination at the facility; and 2) changing attitudes and behaviors towards women who use drugs and/or trade sex; and 3) building a stigma-free clinic. Each of these clinics also received anti-stigma messaging materials (i.e., pamphlets, posters) to display in their clinics over a 6 month period. Providers received text-based message twice a month during this time to reinforce skills learned during trainings and to empower providers to be stigma change agents. Providers completed pre/post survey assessments.
