Abstract:

This ongoing study will investigate the benefits of working in two New York State (NYS) HIV prison-based peer programs for current and former female peers. Based on social control theory and life course theory, it is hypothesized that women who work or have worked for the ACE (AIDS, Counseling and Education) and CARE (Counseling, AIDS, Resource and Education) programs will have developed high levels of self-esteem, strong attachments to conventional others, an involvement and commitment to conventional activities, and have beliefs in accordance with conventional rules, when compared to those inmates who have not worked for a peer education program. The strength of the social bonds that develop from working as an HIV peer educator will serve as a life transition that can alter the criminal trajectory, thus increasing levels of institutional and postrelease success
