Brief Summary

Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) can be very effective at preventing HIV infection among women at high-risk for HIV but is underused in this population. Periods of incarceration represent an opportunity to identify women at risk and link them to PrEP care as they leave jail or prison. This study aims to improve linkage to community-based PrEP care to reduce HIV acquisition in a high-need, underserved community.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Rates of linkage to community-based PrEP care

    Linkage to community-based care is operationalized as receipt of a prescription for PrEP from a community-based provider within 3 months of release from prison, confirmed through medical record data extraction.

    3 Months post-release

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • PrEP Adherence

    3 Months and 6 Months post-release

  • PrEP Care Retention

    3 Month clinical appointments (+/- 1 month)

  • Alcohol and Drug Use

    6-months

  • HIV Risk Behavior

    6-months

  • Depressive Symptoms

    6-months

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

MI-NAV

EXPERIMENTAL

A study therapist will deliver a motivational interviewing session with participants while they are incarcerated and serve as a role of patient navigator post-release.

Behavioral: Motivational Interviewing & Patient Navigator

Standard of Care (SOC)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Approximates care currently provided at the prison.

Behavioral: Standard of Care (SOC)

Interventions

The specific content, structure, and implementation approach for MI-NAV will be guided by IDIs conducted during Phase 1 and Phase 2. Our initial plan is to deliver MI-NAV in two waves. The first wave will be aimed at promoting uptake of PrEP at the prison, through the use of motivational interviewing. The second wave will be aimed at linking at-risk women to community-based PrEP care upon release from incarceration, by utilizing a patient navigator approach.

MI-NAV

SOC will consist of a pamphlet regarding PrEP during incarceration, an offer of PrEP while incarcerated, and referral to community-based PrEP care upon release.
