Frontline Hepatitis C Training: A 3-Session Curriculum for Syringe Exchange Peer Outreach Workers: Trainers Manual

This monograph is an instruction guide by the Harm Reduction Coalition’s Hepatitis C Harm Reduction Project, a New York City Council-funded technical assistance project initiated in late 2003. The training consists of basic concepts about outreach work, peer education, and hepatitis C. The 3-session program was designed to help syringe exchange peers integrate hepatitis C into their work with current and former drug users. The goal of each session is to provide a basic understanding of each subject covered. The curriculum includes background information, trainer notes, and exercises, guides, and prompt questions to help train peers to initiate outreach conversations.
