Detailed Description:
Numerous factors influence ones sexual choices including social support and pressure internal feelings and beliefs and knowledge about the subject Data indicate that people who are well-informed about the risks associated with certain sexual behaviors are more likely to protect themselves than those who are less informed This study will determine whether an intervention comprising information motivation and behavioral skills components is more effective than an information-only workshop in changing sexual behavior for HIV prevention

Two-thirds of the participants will then be invited to attend an intensive 4-hour safer sex workshop These participants will be randomly assigned to one of two workshops an information-only workshop or a workshop that includes information motivation and behavioral skills components Participants who choose not to participate in the workshop will complete the study after receiving their STD and HIV test results Participants who participate in the workshop will return to the clinic at 3 6 and 12 months after the workshop to complete another questionnaire about sexual behaviors and give a urine sample for STD testing
