<![CDATA[The HIV testing program's implementation among pregnant mothers is still not going well due to their intention. Their intention is needed because it can affect pregnant mothers' behavior toward HIV testing. New interventions are needed to solve this problem, such as Home-based HIV Test and Education (HOPE). This study aimed to analyze the influ ence of HOPE to improve HIV testing intention among pregnant mothers. The pre experimental design used with the one group pretest-posttest approach where the imple mentation was carried out for one month with the distribution of the pretest carried out at week 2, and posttest carried out at week 4 of the study thirty pregnant mothers in Jember following this study and involved by using a purposive sampling technique. The data were collected by using the intention questionnaire and analyzed with the Wilcoxon test. The results showed that the pretest results were 20 pregnant women who had the intention to carry out HIV tests and increased to 27 pregnant women on posttest measurements. The results indicate a significant influence of HOPE on the intention of HIV testing in pregnant women (p = 0.033). The Home-based HIV Test and Education (HOPE) interven tion can improve pregnant mothers' intention toward HIV testing. The HOPE interven tion can reach all pregnant mothers (and their husbands) to discover HIV testing information. Involving their husbands in HOPE intervention encouraged pregnant mothers' intention of HIV testing because their husbands were decision-makers in their family, andpregnant mothers will take HIV testing.]]>
