Description

The purpose of this notice of funding opportunity is to support formative research on cis-gender Black women with HIV (CgBWH) and their acceptance and perceived barriers and facilitators of using current and future long-acting antiretroviral therapies. Use of a qualitative research design is expected to yield details and nuances of decision-making and circumstances related to uptake of Long-Acting Antiretroviral Therapies (LA-ART) that may not be possible to gather through quantitative data collection methods alone. This exploratory qualitative approach will offer a unique source of information about LA-ART from the perspectives and experiences of CgBWH, including barriers and facilitators to uptake and use and individual and systemic supports needed to facilitate delivery of this therapy. The findings of this research are expected to strengthen adherence to ART for this population and impact the racial/ethnic disparities in viral suppression observed for this group.
