Linking Youth to Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Services
Starting soon · Not applicable
Conditions studied: HIV, PrEP, PrEP Adherence
In brief
The LYPS intervention is a multi-level intervention that combines: a) structural-level delivery of PrEP and PrEP services by a community health professional (CHP) at a designated place in the community being offered by the SC where PrEP is not yet provided (e.g., participant's home, community partner location, or traveling mobile van), with b) an individual-level mobile application (app) to support PrEP adherence and persistence between CHP visits.
