PrEP Messaging for Southern Communities

Amplifying Our Voice

Amplifying Our Voice is seeking information directly from a diversity of gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men to understand how they connect with HIV PrEP and prevention messages. Researchers at UAB are interested in understanding how we can better promote PrEP to the communities that need it most. By joining the study and sharing your perspective, you can participate in innovative crowdsourcing to create more authentic and informative PrEP messages throughout Southern communities.

If you are a gay, bisexual, or other man who has sex with men who is HIV negative and between the ages of 18-39, contact us here to learn more!
