#PrEPSaves
PrEP Users’ Union
Since 2018, PrEP4All has led the charge for a federally-funded National PrEP Program. As the movement has gotten more attention, including calls from policymakers to establish such a program, it is more important than ever to uplift the voices of PrEP users in key HIV policy discussions.
That’s why PrEP4All has expanded the groundwork laid with our Summer 2023 #PrEPSaves campaign to launch the PrEP Users’ Union (P2U).

Our goal is to recruit racially and gender diverse individuals impacted by HIV in key jurisdictions
We seek to facilitate the mobilization of current and former PrEP users in discussions with policymakers, media, and other stakeholders, and to further define challenges and opportunities for PrEP access as identified by PrEP4All and our advocacy partners.

Take Action Towards Making PrEP Accessible for Everyone
In the summer of 2023, as one of the leading organizations fighting for a federally-funded National PrEP Program, PrEP4All launched the #PrEPSaves campaign to highlight how a National PrEP Program could address significant barriers to PrEP faced by PrEP users.
The #PrEPSaves PrEP Users Union will expand on this work in a more comprehensive way by elevating the voices of PrEP users in media and key policy discussions, while supporting PrEP users with PrEP policy education, and ultimately, direct engagement with key policymakers and stakeholders.
PrEP4All will work together with PrEP users to take action to protect their rights to comprehensive HIV prevention access and hold government, pharmaceutical companies, and insurers accountable in creating reasonable conditions for fair and equitable access.
