Abstract

Significant geographic differences in HIV incidence exist in the United States, with people in the Southern United States having disproportionately high rates of HIV infection yet low rates of PrEP utilization. Through preliminary work, we have identified successful strategies to increase PrEP uptake and support PrEP persistence among patients in community health clinic settings. Using the Exploration, Preparation, Implementation, and Sustainment (EPIS) implementation science framework, this proposal will adapt these strategies for implementation and scale up in the Southern United States to improve PrEP care continuum outcomes among patients.
