Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), a once daily medication, can dramatically reduce HIV acquisition risk. However, social and structural barriers have contributed to suboptimal PrEP initiation, adherence, and retention in care. Our prior NIH-funded pilot study (R34MH109371; MPI: Nunn, Chan, Mena) developed and evaluated an Intervention to Retain and Adhere MSM in PrEP (RAMP-IT-UP), a brief strengths-based patient navigation program to enhance PrEP care outcomes among young men. The intervention was found to be highly acceptable and demonstrated preliminary effectiveness. Compared to control participants, RAMP-IT-UP participants were statistically more likely to initiate PrEP and adhere to PrEP based on
