A Mixed Methods Study of the Association Between LAI PrEP Initiation and Adherence, and Utilization of Health and Social Support Services Among Key Populations in Washington DC

Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY

The primary objective of the proposed study is to investigate how PrEP use might result in an increase in the utilization of health and social services offered at a local community-based organization. Our primary hypothesis is that the investigators will observe higher utilization of sexual health (STI screenings), psychosocial health (psychotherapy, and substance use treatment) and other social services (emergency cash assistance, food pantry, transportation assistance, clothing,and housing resources) among PrEP users (LAI-PrEP or daily oral) compared to participants who are PrEP naïve over the 12-month follow-up period.
