Summary

This study looks at two strategies for getting HIV self-test kits and PrEP (a daily pill that prevents HIV) to people who might benefit. Current PrEP users will either directly give kits to friends or refer them to pick up kits. The goal is to see which method gets more people tested and connected to PrEP. About 320 people will take part.
