3 INTRODUCTION In 2007, the Cleveland Department of Public Health (CDPH) and the AIDS Funding Collaborative (AFC) partnered to initiate an intensive evaluation of the HIV prevention programs funded through Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) dollars that CDPH administers. In order to maximize the impact and value of the evaluation, it was designed to span two years and to incorporate extensive technical assistance for the community agencies providing the HIV prevention programming and collecting the evaluation data. The Institute for Health and Social Policy (IHSP) at the University of Akron was contracted with to design and conduct the evaluation, in partnership with CDPH and AFC, and provide technical assistance. The first year of the evaluation, July 2007-June 2008, focused heavily on 1) establishing measurable objectives for each goal of the prevention programs, and 2) designing and implementing a standard data collection instrument to be used across all funded programs focused on documenting the HIV knowledge, HIV risk factors, and demographic information for all clients served by the CDBG-funded HIV prevention programs. It should be noted that several of the funded programs engaged in a variety of prevention activities so the evaluators worked to help specify prevention goals for each of these activities. Several additional activities were included in the first year of the evaluation. A webbased reporting system was developed by the IHSP. The web-based reporting system was implemented so that each agency could identify their individual goals and then report the number of clients served by each goal. In addition, a process was begun to develop a single instrument that would collect knowledge, risk and demographic data and would be used by all agencies. One goal of the new instrument was that it could be scanned, thus reducing data entry time and errors. During the course of the first year CDBG funded agencies and management team (CDPH, AFC, IHSP) worked through several version of the instrument to achieve the final version of the instrument. In addition IHSP staff provided numerous site visits to each agency as they worked at implementing the new instrument and achieving their unique goals. Data was collected by each agency and picked up monthly by IHSP staff for scanning into a data base. Data analysis was provided quarterly to the management team during the first year. This report presents data on the first year of this two-year evaluation of the CDBG HIV prevention programs at eight sites. Program descriptions and program objectives for each of the sites are described in the individual site reports in the second half of the report. Data for clients reflects seven sites. Client data from the AIDS Taskforce s CDBGfunded program is not reflected in this analysis as it is focused on professional capacity building training rather than client-level prevention programming. This report is intended as an overall summary of program achievements targeted at clients. It presents aggregate data and also site-specific client data. Analysis is focused on the risk factors and knowledge of clients served specifically related to HIV. 3
4 DEMOGRAPHICS OF CLIENTS REACHED In the grant year, over 6,000 clients were reached with CDBG-funded HIV programming, and 2,689 of these completed the data collection instrument. The discrepancy between the number of clients served and the number of surveys collected is due to a number of factors. First, there was a delay in the start of data collection while the survey instrument was developed. Second, it took some time for sites to establish a reliable system for data collection. Third, the evaluation plan did not require data collection for some funded activities. The table below presents detailed information about those who completed the survey. May Dugan 19% Proyecto Luz 5% Site AGAPE 0% LGBT 3% NEON 13% Transitional Housing 52% Free Clinic 8% SITE Frequency Percent AGAPE 12.4 LGBT Transitional Housing Free Clinic NEON May Dugan Proyecto Luz Total Given the variability in the type and reach of prevention programming conducted by the various sites, we did expect as the data reflect that some sites would reach many more clients than others. Since the contribution in terms of client numbers across sites is highly variable, any program-wide results should be interpreted with caution. However, aggregate data represents the collective efforts of the CDBG HIV prevention program to serve a target population and can be used for general planning purposes. 4
5 Also, it should be noted that due to several pilot versions of the survey questionnaire, full data on all variables is not available. For some variables in the database, responding clients left answers blank. In these cases, blank responses were eliminated from the analyses. The annual demographic profile is presented below, including race 1, sexual orientation, gender, educational level, and age (again, adjusted for the various versions of the survey questionnaire). As reported below, we also collected zip code data from clients to assess the geographic reach of the programs. RACE Frequency Percent Black-African American White Other Multi Racial Black-African American & White Asian American Indian-Alaskan Native Asian & White American Indian-Native American & Black 23.9 Native Hawaiian-Other Pacific Islander 16.7 Total Definitions of racial categories was dictated by federal government H.U.D. race reporting requirements. 5

10 Zip Codes ZIP Freq. % ZIP Freq. % ZIP Freq. % Other Several things should be noted concerning zip codes for clients served by CDBG-funded agencies. First eight hundred and thirty-two respondents (30.9%) reported no permanent address and consequently no zip code. Second, out of the 100 plus zip codes reported by clients served by CDBG projects, 16 account for 80% of the clients served. These 16 zip codes represent Cleveland proper and adjacent communities. 10

12 CLIENTS HIV KNOWLEDGE AND RISK In order to examine the key concepts of HIV knowledge and HIV risk, we calculated two new scale variables. The knowledge and risk scales were not calculated for The AIDS Taskforce of Great Cleveland because this agency is exclusively involved in a training program for professionals. The knowledge scale variable was based on 10 knowledge questions that appeared consistently in all version of the instrument. Therefore, a client s knowledge score could range from 0-10, with 0 being the lowest knowledge and 10 being the highest. Aggregate results showed that the majority of clients served this year across programs had high or relatively high knowledge. In fact, 62% of those reached in the program scored a 7 or higher on the HIV knowledge scale. Over one-third scored 9 or 10 out of 10. This suggests that spending a significant portion of time during these HIV prevention programs on key HIV knowledge may not be an efficient effort, and time could be better used to address other knowledge issues or behavioral risk. Knowledge Frequency Percent Cumulative Percent Score Total
13 HIV risk was calculated based on three concepts- self-report of multiple sex partners, self-report of not using a condom all of the time, and self-report of having ever injected illicit drugs. While other risk factors will be included in year 2 data analyses, these three variables were consistent across year one data collection. Therefore, for this risk scale, scores range from zero to three. Examining the valid data percents (adjusted for missing data), we find that overall, almost one-third (32%) of clients served during the first year self-reported 0 or no risk on the HIV risk scale and an additional one-third (37%) indicated one risk factor. Therefore, one could conclude that over two-thirds of the clients served during this year (based on the criteria we have available) self-report 1 or less risk factors for HIV. Risk Frequency Percent Score Total All Sites Scale N Mean Std. Deviation Std. Error Knowledge Risk
14 If we conceptualize these variables into lower and high based on the cut-offs conceptualized below, we can examine four distinct target groups (low knowledge was determined by answering 0 to 6 of the questions correctly; lower risk was determined by having zero and 1 risk factor): Low Knowledge, High Risk (highest risk population) High Knowledge, High Risk Low Knowledge, Lower Risk High Knowledge, Lower Risk (lowest risk population) Based on this conceptualization, we can conclude from the annual data that the overall program clients reached included only 327 clients at low knowledge and high risk (that is, 15.5% of the population reached by the program were in the highest risk category). While this categorization allows for some general assessment of clients overall risk levels, it does have limitations. For instance, our understanding of the concept of community viral load (i.e. both the prevalence of HIV in a community and the degree to which those who are HIV+ have access to medical care which can lower their level of virus) tells us that a client with lower risk according to this scale may in fact be at high risk for acquiring HIV if the community viral load in her/his social network is high. Number Percent Lower Risk-Low Knowledge High Risk-Low Knowledge Lower Risk-High Knowledge High Risk-High Knowledge Total % 14
15 Results Although the results indicate that many clients served under this program indeed do not report the risk factors examined, this may be due to true lower risk or a reluctance to report risk behaviors. In terms of knowledge, the results do indicate that the majority of clients served have high HIV knowledge of the items in the knowledge scale. This may demonstrate the historic focus of the overall program on health education and the relative success within these programs to address knowledge gaps. These overall program results indicate that the program could benefit from examining the target populations being reached and tailoring programming accordingly. For instance, those clients with high risk and high knowledge might be best served by interventions focused on behavior change. While risk-knowledge results for individual sites vary, overall, the CDBG agencies are reaching a substantial group of clients who report one or no risk factors for HIV. Each agency was asked to develop objectives based on the various population served and programs funded by CDBG dollars. For year one, we cannot separate out data by objectives due to changes made to the instrument and the coding of objectives during the year. However, data are being collected by objectives in year-two of the evaluation so more detailed analysis will be possible for year-two quarterly and annual reports. The ability to analyze data by the specific goals of each agency will help identify riskknowledge profiles of the clients being serviced by objective. In year-two we are also focused heavily on technical assistance for all agencies to address issues related to program modification, target populations, follow-up of clients, etc. Results by Site Examining the mean knowledge scale scores and mean risk scale scores by site, there is substantial variation in the risk levels of clients being served. Below is a breakdown of site by mean scores and then using the high/low cut-offs. These results could be used to provide technical assistance to sites on their client recruitment efforts. It should be noted that numbers of clients for whom we have data reported for year one may vary widely from the number of clients served. There are several reasons for this. First, not all objectives required completion of data forms. Second, at the start of year one (July 2007) new forms were not yet ready for use. The first version of the new forms was not implemented until October and many were served but did not complete the data forms. Each agency has had one-on-one technical assistance on working with clients and getting their cooperation in completing the forms. Finally, agencies had coding concerns so it is not possible to identify data forms that apply to a particular objective. Beginning with year two, agencies are reporting numbers that reflect both specific objectives and actual data forms completed. 15
16 Recommendations Based on the results presented this report, we recommend technical assistance to each site to 1) recruit clients with risk profiles appropriate for the intervention being offered, and 2) better tailoring of prevention programming activities to match the knowledge and risks of clients. 16
17 AGAPE (Under Antioch Development Corporation) 17
18 Agency Name: AGAPE Program (Antioch Development Corporation) Agency Address: 8869 Cedar Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio Program Name: The Faith-Based Circle of Care Project Target Population: African American Females, Aged years Program Staff: Gena Austin, Program Manager Program Year: July 1, 2007 June 30, 2008 Grant Amount: $30,000 Program Description: The Faith-Based Circle of Care Project is focused on creating active partnerships with six community-involved pastors and their congregations. AGAPE expects to raise awareness among African Americans who may not otherwise be reached. These faith-based congregations typically include large cohorts of heterosexual females aged 25-44, one of the largest populations at-risk for contracting HIV. The recruited congregations will become members of AGAPEs Faith Community Network, a consortium of urban churches in six City of Cleveland wards. Through their membership congregants will be dedicated to the prevention and containment of HIV/AIDS via education, lifestyle change and HIV testing within the African American community. PLEASE NOTE: Objectives for AGAPE include training of site coordinators and working with church congregations as client. However, as part of this new undertaking, AGAPE used both client and training forms with the congregations they served during year one. As such, you will see two reports below that appear to represent the training of 45 individuals and 12 clients. In fact, only 5 of training surveys were for site coordinators and the remaining 40 were congregation members. Because the information collection on the training and client forms are different, we did not combine the reports so that the most information available could be reported for this agency. 18

Services to be provided include one-on-one HIV risk reduction counseling, HIV testing and community-based outreach education to adults practicing high risk behaviors; injection drug users via the Syringe Exchange Program (SEP); African American men and women; and high-risk clients in community programs (shelters and residential programs) throughout the city. (High-risk clients include minorities, the homeless, substance abusers, and adults engaging in behaviors which increase their risk of HIV infection). One-on-one HIV risk reduction counseling is specific to the individual client based on their existing knowledge, lifestyle and target population. Specific HIV prevention skills are taught, including identification of personal barriers to safe sex practices, interpersonal communication skills with sexual partners about safer sex practices, refusal skills, male and female condom use and identification of HIV risk. Education for injection drug users includes their specific risks, such as needle sharing. Rapid HIV testing, offering same-day results, is provided on-site at The Free Clinic and in the community by our staff and volunteers. The Free Clinic also provides oral and blood tests for HIV. Injection drug users may choose to take their tests at the syringe exchange program (SEP) van. In this case, the results are available in one week. SEP clients are encouraged to bring their partners for testing as well. 33

We conduct prevention and education programs for Latinas in a culturally and contextually competent manner. Latina women are trained to become peer community advocates in addition to conducting safer sex forums for adolescent females within their families and community. There are 41,373 women in the seven neighborhoods of Cleveland s west side served by Proyecto Luz; 19,461 are Latinas. Latinas are particularly vulnerable for HIV infection because of cultural norms and practices within their community. Latinas are not accustomed to speaking openly about sex. It is particularly risky for them to talk about condom use with their partners as it may be perceived as an indication of promiscuity something not readily tolerated among Latinos. We provide the support, knowledge, and relevant skills to prevent HIV/AIDS infection and to negotiate condom use within their lives. 63
