Interventions
- Healthy Families PrEP Counselling Intervention — DRUGHealthy Families-PrEP intervention with HIV-uninfected women with plans for pregnancy in the next year and concerns about or exposure to HIV. Session 1 focuses on providing information about HIV prevention in the context of reproductive goals (using tools with locally developed images), increasing motivation for behavior change, and developing a safer conception plan (e.g., PrEP uptake, PrEP adherence, couples-based counselling and testing, delaying condomless sex until partner serostatus known and, if living with HIV, virally suppressed). Sessions 2 and 3 (conducted at 1 and 3 months) review the safer conception plan and revise as needed (e.g., changes in readiness to initiate PrEP, partner serostatus knowledge) and engaging in problem-solving barriers (including structural) to plan execution, communication skills training, and motivational strategies for successful plan execution. Participants receive quarterly adherence counseling using tools developed by this team.
Study Details
Study investigators developed and piloted a counselling intervention, Healthy Families-PrEP, that supports women to use HIV prevention strategies while trying for and during pregnancy. They will now adapt the intervention to community clinics and postpartum women and test the intervention. The goal is to reduce HIV incidence among women and children.
