ACE: Adherence, Counseling and Education

ACE
What helps HIV+ men with medication adherence?


ACE is an intervention designed to help HIV+ individuals improve their adherence to HIV medications. Adherence to HIV medication can be difficult for many reasons (including side effects and complicated regimens), but substance use is often a particular barrier and concern. ACE is an 8-session intervention in which participants receive counseling and/or education focused on improving medication adherence, while also considering options for reducing or quitting substance use and other associated risk behaviors.
