Prevention
Housing Works supports the use of the full range of HIV prevention tools available. To end the HIV epidemic, we will need to be making use of every viable tool in the HIV prevention and treatment arsenals, and that means increasing education and awareness of each tool as well as access to them.
Our Strategies include:
• Recommend antiretrovirals (ARVs) for all HIV-positive adults and adolescents consistent with federal guidelines.
• Make PrEP available for those who need it.
• Make occupational PEP available onsite and non-occupational PEP available in pharmacies and community health clinics within two hours of exposure.
