PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Pre-intervention, post intervention (3 months)

Population: Only participants responding to the survey question were analyzed

Following questions will be asked with yes or no answers. In the past 3 months, have you gotten buprenorphine maintenance medication-like Suboxone or Subutex-from a doctor or program? Responses were coded as 0 = "No" and 1 = "Yes." Summary statistics presented as "mean" below represent the proportion responding yes.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Pre-intervention, post intervention (3 months)

Population: Only participants responding to the survey question were analyzed

Following questions will be asked to gauge ease of accessing clean injecting equipment to assess how risky the participants behaviors are in relation to HIV transmission. "It's easy for me to get new, clean syringes or needles." Questions will be answered on a scale of 0 to 4, with 0=strongly disagree and 4=strongly agree. An increase in the Likert scale among intervention participants is associated with increased access to HIV prevention compared to the controls.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Pre-intervention, post intervention (3 months)

Population: Participants who responded to the survey question were analyzed

Participants were asked to gauge frequency of safe injection behaviors that reduce the risk of HIV. Participants will be asked how many times in the last 30 days they have practiced these behaviors. "In the last 3 months, how often have you shared needles with someone else, used a syringe more than once, used equipment you knew wasn't clean, or received equipment from a potentially unsafe source?" Responses were coded 0="never" and 1="at least once"
