This study directly supports CDC’s Healthy People 2020 Healthy Homes’ health protection goal. This investigation is also consistent with CDC’s Health Protection Research Agenda, which calls for research to identify the major environmental causes of disease and disability and related risk factors. In 2011, CDC funded two study sites for the Green Housing Study; one location was in Boston and the other was in Cincinnati. In these two cities, renovations sponsored by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) had already been scheduled. By selecting sites in which renovations were already scheduled to occur, CDC can leverage the opportunity to collect survey and biomarker data from residents and collect environmental measurements in homes in order to evaluate associations between green housing and health.

Proposed Project

    Community Context Matters Study--New--National Center for HIV/AIDS, 
Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP), Centers for Disease 
Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The daily use of specific antiretroviral medications by persons 
without HIV infection, but at high risk of sexual or injection exposure 
to HIV, has been shown to be a safe and effective HIV prevention 
method. The Food and Drug Administration approved the use of 
Truvada[supreg] for preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) in July 2012 and CDC 
has issued clinical practice guidelines for its use. With approximately 
50,000 new HIV infections each year, increasing rates of infection for 
young MSM, and continuing severe disparities in HIV infection among 
African-American men and women, incorporation of PrEP into HIV 
prevention is important. However, as a new prevention tool in very 
early stages of introduction and use, there is much we need to learn 
about how to implement PrEP in a real world setting and the need to

new measurement tools to capture this information.
    CDC is requesting OMB approval to collect data over a 3-year period 
that will be used to (1) assess the utility of new measures developed 
or adapted to collect information related to this new intervention 
(PrEP) and (2) evaluate community contextual factors that may impact 
the acceptability and successful introduction of a new HIV prevention 
method. The project will be conducted in communities in each of four 
cities where PrEP has recently become available through a local 
community health center.
    Once per year for three years, two surveys will be conducted: (1) A 
community-based survey to be administered to 40 persons per city 
approached in public venues in the catchment areas of the PrEP clinics, 
and (2) a key stakeholder survey to be administered to 10 community HIV 
leaders nominated by PrEP clinic staff and HIV community-based 
organizations in the clinic communities. Both surveys will collect data 
on the demographics of the participants, knowledge of PrEP, 
misinformation about PrEP, and attitudes about it. The neighborhood 
survey will also include questions about basic HIV knowledge, 
attitudes, and beliefs as well as information about sexual and drug use 
behaviors that are indications for PrEP use. For the stakeholder 
survey, additional questions will be included about type of 
organization where they work and organizational experience with PrEP. 
Surveys will be administered face-to-face by trained, local 
interviewers.
    There are no costs to respondents other than their time. The total 
annual hours are 91.
