Abstract: Globally, men who have sex with men (MSM) experience a disproportionate burden of mental health issues. While HIV service providers may possess the skills and relationships to provision mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) to this population, task-sharing models that integrate MHPSS into HIV contexts remain limited. The aim of this study was to explore the sociodemographic, psychological, and structural factors operant at the client and HIV service provider levels that shape MHPSS access and burden among MSM and opportunities for integration in Vietnam.
