This study proposes to test a brief, one-hour counseling intervention with male clients in Tijuana, Mexico, to reduce their rates of unprotected sex (i.e. sex without a condom) with female sex workers (FSWs) as well as their rates of infection with HIV and STIs.  Finding an effective intervention for this population is important given the rising rates of HIV infection in Tijuana and the large numbers of people crossing the border in both directions, many of them specifically to purchase sex from FSWs in Tijuana.
