Sponsor: University of California, San Francisco
Conditions: HIV Infections, Stigma, Social
Interventions: Standard of care engagement practices, Peer Navigators Addressing INtersectional Stigma to Improve HIV Prevention Among Criminal-Justice Involved Women
Countries: United States
Women involved in the criminal justice system have complex and highly stigmatized sexual and substance use risk profiles and are particularly vulnerable to, and experience, high rates of HIV. Criminal justice settings represent an important opportunity to address health disparities in HIV by linking women, who experience multiple, intersecting stigmas with innovative biomedical HIV prevention strategies, like pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). The investigators propose to develop and test a peer-led patient navigation intervention for criminal-justice involved (CJI) women at risk of HIV acquisition to reduce intersectional stigma and improve uptake and linkage to PrEP services, thereby increasing access to PrEP and decreasing PrEP-related disparities.
