Participant Flow

Information about the study was disseminated through print media, public service announcements on local radio stations, electronic communication and informational mailings to local AIDS service organizations, county health departments, medical clinics, and community centers.

28 groups did not participate for logistical reasons, including lack of follow-up by group contact (10 groups), failure of women to arrive for the workshop (7 groups), and too few women to meet minimum workshop size (6 groups). Five groups did not participate because of insufficient interest by their members in receiving either workshop.
