“…The CDC approach required all CBO evaluations to satisfy criteria for evaluation design and strength of evidence concerning evaluation outcomes to potentially qualify for inclusion in the Compendium of Evidence-Based HIV Behavioral Interventions (http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/prevention/research/compendium/rr/index.html), and for possible packaging through CDC’s Replicating Effective Interventions Plus project (http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/prevention/research/rep/packages) and dissemination for use by service provider organizations through CDC’s Diffusion of Effective Behavioral Interventions program (http://www.effectiveinterventions.org; Collins & Tomlinson, 2014). The Innovative Interventions Project funded People of Color in Crisis to evaluate the small-group Many Men, Many Voices (3MV) intervention, which the CBO had co-developed for and had been delivering to black MSM in the New York area since 1997 (Wilton et al, 2009); SisterLove, Inc. to evaluate the small-group Healthy Love Workshop intervention for heterosexual black women that it developed and had been delivering to women in metropolitan Atlanta since 1989 (Diallo et al, 2010); and the Philadelphia Health Management Corporation to evaluate the theater-based Preventing AIDS through Live Movement and Sound (PALMS) intervention for incarcerated and adjudicated minority adolescent males that it had developed and had been delivering to these populations since 1993 (Lauby et al, 2010).…”

“…3MV was included in the CDC Compendium as a “best evidence” intervention. The intervention was included in CDC’s Diffusion of Effective Behavioral Interventions project, and revised intervention materials were distributed to CDC-funded CBOs and health departments to support delivery of the intervention and made available to the public (www.effectiveinterventions.org; Collins & Tomlinson, 2014; Herbst, Painter, Tomlinson, & Alvarez, 2014). The Healthy Love workshop was listed as a “good evidence” intervention in the Compendium, and with CDC support, was packaged and is also available (http://www.effectiveinterventions.org) for use by service providers.…”

Hispanic/Latino men who have sex with men (MSM) in the United States are disproportionately affected by HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs); however, no efficacious behavioral interventions are currently available for use with this vulnerable population. We describe the development and enhancement of HOLA en Grupos, a community-based behavioral HIV/STD prevention intervention for Spanish-speaking Hispanic/Latino MSM that is currently being implemented and evaluated. Our enhancement process included incorporating local data on risks and context; identifying community priorities; defining intervention core elements and key characteristics; developing a logic model; developing an intervention logo; enhancing intervention activities and materials; scripting intervention delivery; expanding the comparison intervention; and establishing a materials review committee. If efficacious, HOLA en Grupos will be the first behavioral intervention to be identified for potential use with Hispanic/Latino MSM, thereby contributing to the body of evidence-based resources that may be used for preventing HIV/STD infection among these MSM and their sex partners.

“…26 The DEBI teams have tried to respond by adjusting strategic components of the dissemination project to be more inclusive of community input. 37 The DEBI teams found that it was important to distinguish between adoption resistance and partial implementation of an intervention. This was important because some implementing agencies took longer to conduct formative evaluation to "fit" the intervention into local context and agency capacity; this was particularly true for communitylevel interventions, which generally took longer for CBOs to roll out than did group-or individual-level interventions.…”

In 1999, IOM issued a report that recommended that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention should disseminate evidence-based HIV prevention interventions (EBIs) to be implemented by health departments, community-based organizations, drug treatment centers, and clinics. Based on these recommendations, the Diffusion of Effective Behavioral Interventions Project was initiated in 2000 and began disseminating interventions into public health practice. For 15 years, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has disseminated 29 EBIs to more than 11,300 agencies. Lessons were identified during the 15 years of implementation regarding successful methods of dissemination of EBIs. Lessons around selecting interventions for dissemination, developing a dissemination infrastructure including a resource website (https://effectiveinterventions.cdc.gov), and engagement with stakeholders are discussed. A continuous development approach ensured that intervention implementation materials, instructions, and technical assistance were all tailored to the needs of end users, focus populations, and agency capacities. Six follow-up studies demonstrated that adopters of EBIs were able to obtain comparable outcomes to those of the original efficacy research. The Diffusion of Effective Behavioral Interventions Project may offer guidance for other large, national, evidence-based public health dissemination projects.

Evidence-based interventions (EBIs) often require competent staff, or human resources (HR), for implementation. The empirical evidence characterizing the influence of HR fluctuations on EBI delivery is limited and conflicting. Using the Interactive Systems Framework, we explored staff fluctuation and the subsequent influence on RESPECT, an HIV prevention EBI. Methods We conducted interviews with staff in two waves (n=53, Wave I; n=37, Wave II) in a national sample of organizations delivering RESPECT (N=29). We analyzed interviews qualitatively to describe changes among RESPECT staff and explore the subsequent influences on RESPECT implementation. Results Organizations reported downsizing, turnover, and expansion of staff positions. Staff changes had multiple influences on RESPECT implementation including clients reached, fidelity to specific RESPECT protocols, and overall sustainability of RESPECT over time. Discussion HR fluctuations are common, and our analyses provide an initial characterization of the relationship between HR fluctuation and EBI implementation. Given the prominent influence of HR on EBI implementation, the Interactive Systems Framework is a useful guiding tool for future examinations.
