Effectiveness of Culturally Tailored HIV Intervention in Promoting PrEP Among Black Women
Key Findings:
In a randomized clinical trial, a culturally-tailored HIV intervention called E-WORTH significantly increased awareness of PrEP and willingness to use PrEP among Black women in community supervision programs in New York City.
Practical Solutions:
These findings highlight the need for more robust PrEP-on-demand strategies integrated into other services, such as substance abuse treatment, to address low PrEP uptake in this population.
Value:
This intervention effectively increased awareness and intention to initiate PrEP among Black women in CSP settings, addressing disparities in PrEP uptake and HIV prevention.
