Increasing provider awareness of PrEP on HBCU campuses and beyond: A case study of the HBCU HIV prevention project (H2P)

CONCLUSIONS: The project successfully increased provider awareness of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), effective HIV testing, and strategies for reducing HIV infection among HBCU college students. Findings highlight the project's impact on enhancing provider training and the potential of this impact on addressing HIV disparities among African Americans on HBCU campuses and their surrounding communities. The success of the H2P Project provides valuable insights for future interventions, reinforcing the importance of targeted, systems-level approaches in mitigating health disparities among marginalized populations. Implications are also drawn as to the potential for expanding such provider-level interventions to address other health conditions and informing policy development in African American communities.PMID:38350799 | DOI:10.1016/j.jnma.2024.01.011
