HIV Prevention Clinical Trial

Official title:
Project WERK (Wellness Encouragement Respect Kinship): Network Support to Engage and Retain Younger Black MSM in PrEP Care

Clinical Trial Summary

The Project WERK intervention is a brief, theory based and culturally sensitive intervention designed to capitalize on organic yet underutilized social support networks in the lives of young black men who have sex with men (YBMSM). The intervention has been developed with input from clients and their support network members, case managers, social workers, primary care providers. The goal of the intervention is to improve retention in PrEP care for young Black MSM.

Clinical Trial Description

Project WERK will recruit, consent and randomize 160 men, with 80 men randomized to each arm of the study. Men randomized to the control condition will receive standard PrEP care at each clinical site. Men randomized to the experimental condition will receive standard PrEP care and also will be asked to recruit a supportive contact from their social network. The support contact will then be engaged in a brief intervention designed to support their friend/family member around PrEP Care. Men and support contacts in the WERK intervention also will receive booster sessions via telephone and text. All participants will complete surveys at baseline and at three and twelve months post intervention. ;
