Description
"Implementation of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and other HIV prevention initiatives in Rhode Island"
The presentation will focus on recent advances in HIV prevention including post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) and pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). In Rhode Island, we have implemented several new initiatives to address HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs) including a new PEP/PrEP program and free/accessible HIV/STI testing. Our PrEP program is among the first in the country to offer the medication on a clinical basis to at-risk individuals. One of the goals of the presentation will be to identify areas for collaboration between Rhode Island and Connecticut.
