Abstract

In the US, HIV disparities suggest a need to prioritise Black sexual minority men in PrEP social marketing initiatives. However, images linking this group to HIV and PrEP may inadvertently reinforce stigma. In this seminar, I will present a mixed methods study exploring Black sexual minority men’s responses to targeted PrEP advertisements.
