Text Me, Girl!: Transgender-Specific Text Messaging to Support Care Engagement

Text Me, Girl! is a 90-day theory-based, transgender-specific, automated text-messaging intervention designed to improve engagement, retention, and health outcomes along with HIV care continuum. The desired outcome is viral suppression among transgender women with HIV, aged 19-34, who are not linked to care, not retained in care, not prescribed antiretroviral therapy (ART), non-adherent to ART, or not virologically suppressed. The intervention serves to remind, educate, motivate, and encourage behaviors supporting retention in care and medication adherence.
