简要总结
The primary objective of this R34 proposal is to increase willingness for PrEP initiation and PrEP initiation among Black Women (BW) and increase willingness to prescribe/refer pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) to CBW among healthcare providers (HCPs) in Houston/Harris County, a high priority Ending the HIV Epidemic (EHE) jurisdiction.
详细描述
The primary objective of this R34 proposal is to increase willingness for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) initiation and actual PrEP initiation among BW, increase willingness to prescribe/refer PrEP to BW among HCPs in Houston/Harris County, a high-priority End the HIV Epidemic (EHE) jurisdiction. The investigator hypothesizes that a video-log (vlog) series-based health communication intervention disseminated through community health centers (CHCs) and social media will increase willingness for and use of PrEP among BW. Specifically, the intervention will: 1) encourage BW to access and use PrEP; and 2) increase HCP willingness to prescribe and refer PrEP to BW. Our team will explore two aims: 1) inform and develop health messages for Project ROLE with 2023 findings from focus groups with PrEP-eligible BW and key informant interviews with HCPs providing care to BW, and 2) assess the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary impact of Project ROLE in two real-world settings with a pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) and a social media campaign.
Aim 1: A qualitative study using focus groups with Black women and key informant interviews with healthcare providers. (Will not be included in the clinical trial.)
Aim 2a: Pilot randomized controlled trial of a behavioral intervention with both Black women and healthcare providers.
Aim 2b: Social media marketing campaign to reach and engage Black women and healthcare providers in health communication about PrEP. (Will not be included in the clinical trial.)
The proposed research is significant because it will connect Black women to PrEP while increasing healthcare providers willingness to prescribe and refer PrEP to them using a health communication strategy that can guide the development of subsequent vlog-based interventions to address the national EHE plan.
