Project REACH: Telehealth for People Who Use Drugs

This study, called Project REACH, is testing a new telehealth program at syringe service programs (SSPs) to help people who use drugs get better access to HIV-related care. The program, Project REACH, will offer telehealth services for six months. Researchers want to see if it's possible and acceptable to offer these services, and if they help people access HIV prevention methods like PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis). You might be able to join if you are 18 or older, speak English, have used an illicit substance in the past year, live in the study area, and have health insurance. The study is currently recruiting about 121 participants, but its exact status is unclear.

What's involved
