Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Rapid Access

For phase 1 of the study, participants will be recruited for a one-time baseline interview and HIV self-testing. A questionnaire will also be administered to assess their interest in the HIV prevention pill (PrEP= pre-exposure prophylaxis), but PrEP will not be offered. Study duration for each participant is one day; participants will not be followed over time. After the prescreener and consent forms are completed, the Research Assistant (RA) will offer the participant an opportunity to administer an HIV self-test. The participant will be provided the test for unboxing and retrieving the user instructions. All testing will be performed and interpreted by participants. The RA can provide assistance with reading the instruction on how to obtain a proper sample. Alternatively, the RA will direct them to information in the package insert which includes support offered by the OraQuick® Support Center. After completing the HIVST, the RA will complete the baseline questionnaire with each participant while waiting for the participants' HIVST results. After the baseline questionnaire is complete, the RA will conduct satisfaction surveys to assess acceptability of the intervention and interest of PrEP initiation using REDCap.
