A Buenas Preguntas… ¡Mejores Respuestas!

A Buenas Preguntas… ¡Mejores Respuestas!: Un manual de investigación formativa para los programas de prevención de VIH de California que muestra cómo las organizaciones y los departamentos de salud pueden formalizar el proceso de investigación y usarlo para guiar y mejorar sus servicios. La investigación formativa ofrece la oportunidad de formular las preguntas que permiten indagar información clave sobre lo que se quiere o lo se está llevando. Se ofrecen ejemplos de programas a lo largo de California para demostrar cómo es que las organizaciones comunitarias realizan investigación formativa en todo momento, incluso sin advertir que lo que están haciendo es investigación.

Developing, Maintaining, and Sustaining Partnerships

Launched in 2003, Cancer Control P.L.A.N.E.T.(Plan, Link, Act, Network with Evidence-based Tools) and its satellite site, Research-tested Intervention Programs (RTIPs), were developed to address the needs of public health professionals seeking evidence-based resources for their cancer control planning activities. A collaboration between AHRQ, CDC, SAMHSA and NCI was established and as a result the “one stop shop” of Cancer Control P.L.A.N.E.T. was born.

Qualitative Survey: HIV Testing and Counseling among Injection Drug Users

The following survey was used with Project Access, a qualitative needs assessment commissioned by the California State Office of AIDS and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to examine counseling and testing utilization and prevention programs through the perspective of drug-using clients. The instrument is designed to assess: 1) the behavioral, psychosocial, and social risk factors that influence high-risk drug users’ decisions to test for HIV; 2) the service delivery factors that influence high-risk drug users’ decision to test for HIV; 3) how high-risk drug users employ HIV testing in personal prevention strategies; and 4) how knowledge of HIV test results affects risk behavior.
