Who We Serve

Title

Expanding PrEP Access in Underserved Communities — and Supporting Programs Nationwide 

Why This Matters

Title

Most PrEP programs struggle with the same challenge: the people who would benefit the most from HIV prevention are often the hardest to reach.

 

Barriers such as stigma, transportation challenges, medical mistrust, and limited access to providers lead to extremely high drop-off between awareness and treatment.

 

B Optima Health addresses this challenge through two complementary approaches: 

 

PrEP Stop, which focuses on expanding access within underserved communities, and PrEP Support AI, which helps providers retain and support patients at scale.

COMMUNITIES WE PRIORITIZE THROUGH 
PREP STOP 

Title

We don’t compete with clinics — we extend their reach into the hardest-to-reach neighborhoods.

Black & Brown Communities

Title
  • Higher HIV incidence rates
  • Historically underserved by healthcare systems
  • Higher levels of medical mistrust
  • Lower access to preventive services

PrEP Stop works with trusted community partners to increase awareness and connect individuals to care. 

Title

LGBTQ+ Youth & Young Adults

Title
  • Higher HIV risk in many regions
  • Highly mobile populations
  • Often disconnected from consistent healthcare
  • Greater reliance on digital communication

PrEP Stop uses digital outreach and community engagement strategies to reach these individuals where they already communicate.

Title

College Students (Including HBCU Campuses)

Title
  • Limited campus health resources
  • High stigma around HIV and PrEP
  • Inconsistent schedules and follow-up
  • Low awareness of prevention options

Through campus partnerships and ambassador programs, PrEP Stop helps expand PrEP awareness and access among college populations. 

Title

Low-Income Housing & Community Sites

Title
  • Transportation barriers
  • Limited access to healthcare providers
  • Long clinic wait times
  • Higher uninsured rates

Community-based outreach programs help close these access gaps. 

Title

Spanish-Speaking & Immigrant Communities

Title
  • Language barriers
  • Fear of documentation requirements
  • Limited culturally competent providers
  • Low awareness of PrEP availability

Bilingual outreach and culturally aligned engagement help address these barriers.
