This paper evaluates and contrasts the effectiveness of two culturally sensitive AIDS education programs developed by the UCLA AIDS Nursing Network and delivered to 213 impoverished Latina homeless or drug-addicted women in Los Angeles. The Comprehensive Health Seeking and Coping Paradigm guided the program, which was implemented by specially trained Latina nurses and outreach workers. A quasi-experimental design was employed where women were randomized by site into Specialized (N = 82) and Traditional (N = 131) programs. Repeated measures ANOVAS and log-linear models were used to evaluate improvement over a two-week period for women in both groups and to identify interactions with program type. Two-week posttest analyses were also conducted to assess program effectiveness, controlling for baseline values of the measure in question, nonequivalency between groups at baseline, and selected demographic characteristics, including acculturation. Results indicated that women in both AIDS education programs improved significantly in cognitive, behavioral, and psychologic outcomes.
