Community‑Based Testing

We know that not everyone can make it into a clinic—and that’s okay. Our team brings free, confidential HIV and STI testing directly into the community so young people can get the care they need in the places where they already live, learn, and hang out.

​

Whether we’re at a school, community center, drop‑in space, Pride event, or neighborhood gathering, our goal is simple: make testing easy, safe, and comfortable for you.

​

What We Offer in the Community


✔ Free, Confidential Testing
We provide rapid HIV tests and simple, youth‑friendly STI testing. No physical exam is required.


✔ Supportive Staff
Our team members are trained to work with adolescents and young adults. They’re friendly, nonjudgmental, and always explain what’s happening before anything starts.


✔ Quick Visits
Most visits take only a few minutes. You can stop by, get tested, and get right back to your day.


✔ Results & Next Steps
For HIV testing, rapid results are usually ready in about 20 minutes.
If you test positive for anything, we help you get connected to treatment quickly and confidentially.
If your results are negative, we can talk about prevention tools like condoms or PrEP (if you're interested).
