Measure
Immediate Genetic Testing
Participants randomized to intervention will receive the APOL1 genetic test immediately upon study enrollment.
Control- Delayed Testing
Participants randomized to control will not receive the APOL1 genetic test upon study enrollment. They will be offered the option to take the test during their final follow-up study visit (12 months post enrollment).
