This Project Grant award of $677,250.00 from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279) will fund the development and testing of the Healthcare Empowerment and Advocacy for Recovery from Trafficking (HEART) intervention. The goal is to engage women with experiences of sex trafficking or vulnerability to sex trafficking into comprehensive care services, including HIV, substance use disorder, mental health, and social services. The intervention will be co-created with end users and women with lived experience, and will be implemented through syringe service programs (SSPs) to provide low-barrier access to care in a non-stigmatizing setting. The specific aims are to develop the HEART intervention components, identify implementation determinants, examine the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention, and document factors relevant to implementation and sustainment. This research project will run from June 2025 to May 2028 and is expected to position the researchers to apply for further funding to evaluate the effectiveness of the HEART intervention in addressing the intersecting public health crises of sex trafficking, opioid use, and HIV.
