HIV Services
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a virus that weakens your immune system. HIV is primarily spread through contact with semen (cum), vaginal fluids, and blood — usually during unprotected sex. It can also be spread through sharing of needles and from mother to child during childbirth or breastfeeding.
Testing and Early Detection
Regular HIV testing is essential for timely detection and treatment. Learn more about our HIV testing service at no cost to you. There is no cure for HIV, but there is treatment - antiretroviral therapy (ART) - that can help you stay healthy, manage HIV-related symptoms, and prevent spreading HIV to others.
Our providers and HIV Specialists™ are here for you whether its through testing or HIV care and management we will walk you through the process with empathy, confidentiality, and no judgement.

Prevention
Condoms
Condoms are effective at preventing HIV transmission when used correctly and consistently. We offer condoms at no-cost to you at our clinic and through mail delivery. Place your order here.
PrEP
Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a once-a-day pill that helps prevent HIV. If you are uninsured or underinsured, there is funding to help get you on PrEP. Learn if PrEP is right for you.
PEP
Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) is a medication regimen to prevent HIV after a possible exposure. PEP should be used only in emergency situations and must be started within 72 hours after a recent exposure. The faster you begin the treatment, the better. Learn more.
