Interventions

  • Integrated Intervention to Promote PrEP Uptake — BEHAVIORAL
    Provision of PrEP information through 3 counseling sessions, prevention navigation, and nurse practitioner-prescribed PrEP in an addiction treatment setting.
  • Standard Treatment Condition — OTHER
    Participants in trauma treatment will be given information and referral to a community partner who will evaluate them to determine if they could benefit from PrEP for HIV prevention

Study Details

The investigators have previously developed an integrated bio-behavioral intervention to promote PrEP uptake and adherence in cisgender women who are undergoing treatment for trauma-related mental health conditions and who are at a higher risk for HIV. The intervention is delivered within the mental health treatment setting and integrates knowledge, behavioral skills, and motivation to engage in and adhere to PrEP care. The purpose of this study is to assess the preliminary efficacy, feasibility, and acceptability of this intervention. The hypothesis is that, compared to standard treatment, the intervention will be feasible, acceptable, and associated with greater PrEP uptake and adherence.
