Educational Intervention Arm: African American College Students Receiving PrEP Awareness Sessions

EXPERIMENTAL

Develop a peer-educator/navigation intervention to help decrease stigma and discrimination and foster knowledge around PrEP use, in the prevention of HIV

Behavioral: PrEP Awareness and Uptake Educational Program

Interventions

PrEP Awareness and Uptake Educational ProgramBEHAVIORAL

This intervention targets African American college students aged 18-26 using a tailored, community participatory approach. It is delivered by trained peer educators and focuses on increasing PrEP awareness, access, and uptake through interactive, behaviorally focused sessions. Developed with input from focus groups to ensure relevance, the program includes a 6-month follow-up to assess sustained impact, distinguishing it from general PrEP education efforts.
