Abstract: Poor adherence and retention in HIV care remain a major challenge among adolescents and young adults (AYA) living with HIV in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Strategies are urgently required to support AYA to remain in care for better health outcomes. We explored AYA preferences regarding the format and delivery of electronic and in-person peer navigation to improve HIV care outcomes. This formative qualitative study was conducted among AYA enrolled in HIV care at three clinics in western Kenya. We conducted two focus group discussions (FGDs) each with 8–9 participants (n = 17) purposively selected based on age, gender and clinic where they received care. The characteristics desired of a navigator are a person of the same age group and HIV status who has a good memory and is friendly and able to maintain confidentiality. AYA want the content of their interaction with the navigator to center on sharing motivational messages and also educating them on matters of HIV care, sexual and reproductive health and mental health. The preferred navigation formats for electronic communication are platforms considered confidential. AYA preferred interventions delivered through secure communication platforms by navigators with whom they have commonalities. The navigation interventions that prioritize confidentiality and holistic content will likely be most highly valued by AYA. Furthermore, electronic mechanisms can help support the relationship building that is at the core of our navigation approach and a fundamental aspect of social work in general. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
