Investigators will conduct a stepped-wedge cluster-randomized programmatic project to integrate PrEP provision within a combination HIV prevention package in 12 family planning clinics in Kisumu, Kenya- a region with an HIV prevalence of up to 28% among young women. The project will optimize and sustain PrEP delivery with existing family planning staff, supported through training and ongoing technical assistance. The investigators will rigorously evaluate program reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation, maintenance, and impact using validated implementation science frameworks and how clinics build new efficient delivery systems.
