On October 10, The Strilite Foundation recognizes National PrEP Day. As a leading advocate for this modality, it is our goal to increase awareness of PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis) and its role in HIV prevention. This awareness day is an opportunity to educate communities about PrEP and promote broader access.
PrEP is a highly effective tool for preventing HIV, but disparities in access and use continue to limit its impact across the United States. While the number of people using PrEP has steadily increased over time, recent progress has slowed, underscoring the need for continued investment in HIV prevention efforts.
From 2024 to 2025, the number of PrEP users increased by just 10%—the smallest annual increase observed in the past five years. Our goal is to continue to increase our statewide efforts to assure all Arkansas access to both Doxy-Pep and Prep to take charge of their sexual health. Learn more at www.stayreadyar.com
