This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing whether a support program—called PrEP navigation—can help people in jail access PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis), a medication that prevents HIV infection. Researchers will work with the Dallas County Jail to identify people at higher risk for HIV and offer them a visit with a specialist who can help them understand and access this preventive medication. The goal is to see if this approach is practical, acceptable, and effective in a jail setting.
People who are incarcerated often have limited access to healthcare and higher rates of HIV. This study exists to figure out whether offering medication navigation and support during incarceration can help prevent HIV infections and connect people to ongoing care when they return to their communities.

You likely don't qualify if…
If you qualify, you would be offered a visit with a PrEP navigation specialist while you are in jail. During this visit, they would discuss HIV prevention options, answer your questions about the medication, and help connect you to resources. The study will also track HIV testing, health outcomes, and how well the program works over time using information from your medical records and routine jail health services.
