N2 - On May 15, 2018, the Federal Drug Administration amended the approval of preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) to include minors (>35 kgs). Adolescent providers are now in need of access to a comprehensive education curriculum on the administration of PrEP to adolescents. This paper outlines such a curriculum with the goal of reaching adolescent providers unfamiliar with PrEP assessment, administration, and monitoring. A comprehensive adolescent PrEP curriculum was designed using a literature review. An expert panel of seven reviewed the curriculum for content validity. A pilot implementation of the curriculum was conducted with staff from eight school-based health clinics located in Upper Manhattan and the Bronx. A formal content-validated curriculum was established providing adolescent health care providers with the tools needed to administer PrEP in their clinical setting. Clinical providers can access our curriculum to aid in their administration of PrEP to an adolescent population.
