The goal of this study is to measure the implementation and effectiveness of a multicomponent strategy for PrEP for people who are incarcerated at the Dallas County Jail. Specifically, based on a patients risk score on an electronic medical record HIV prediction model, referrals from providers and/or patient self-referrals, a PrEP patient navigator will meet with individuals at the jail to discuss HIV risk, offer HIV/STI testing if not yet completed and offer education around PrEP with referrals to community-based PrEP providers.
