Dada kwa Dada
(Original intervention S2S)
English Speaking Participant “I think DADA is good for African immigrant women, especially because of the feeling of community. Group is important to us. “Especially when you look at the bit of the negotiation skills. You find that most African immigrant women or African women find it very difficult to talk about the most sensitive issues in their relationships. And yet they’re very important. So the negotiation skill or that section, it’s very important.
French Speaking Participant It is very appropriate for African immigrant women. I am from West Africa and back home, these topics have a lot of stigma. There is a lot of shame.” “Basically, we Africans don’t know much about HIV, even if we learned about it in school. Not all African women have been to school. There are many who are not informed and there are other technologies that have been developed in the intervening years that we didn’t know about. The fact that the program is in French is going to help African women a lot, and the videos are also really adapted for African women.
