SNAP Trial Summary
This trial will test if training network leaders to endorse PrEP can increase its uptake among AAMSM.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for African-American men who have sex with men (AAMSM) in Milwaukee and Cleveland. Participants must be male at birth, 16 or older, and have had a male sexual partner in the last year. Over half of each participant's network must also join and report being HIV-negative.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if training leaders within AAMSM social networks to endorse PrEP can increase its use compared to just giving brief HIV prevention counseling. Networks are randomly chosen for one of these two approaches.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on behavior change rather than medication, there are no direct side effects from drugs; however, participants may experience stress or anxiety related to discussing sensitive health topics.

Participants will receive brief HIV counseling at baseline visit.
Leaders of social networks will be determined using data from participants. These leaders will then be invited to attend a 5-session small-group training that will teach them how to communicate the benefits of PrEP to their social network members.
All social network members will be asked about intervention exposure at 6- and 15-month followups.
