[vc_featured_box heading_text=”Confidential Testing” content_text=”It never hurts to know your status! We currently offer free rapid HIV & Hep C testing as well as STI testing. HIV & Hep C tests are done by a simple finger prick and you can expect to receive your results in as little as 20 minutes! STI testing is sent out, so those results may take up to 7-10 days.

If you’d like to avoid coming in, please call to ask about how you can receive a free HIV home test kit instead!

If your organization or group would like to receive testing at another location, simply call us or contact Alyssa Ramos ([email protected]) for more information.” heading_color=”#000000″ content_color=”#444444″ graphic_color=”#ffffff” graphic_background_color=”#1ba049″ graphic_shape=”circle” horizontal_alignment=”left” show_button=”show” button_text=”” href=”” button_type=”rounded” icon=”fa fa-check-circle-o” css=”.vc_custom_1602618729687{border-top-width: 1px !important;border-right-width: 1px !important;border-bottom-width: 1px !important;border-left-width: 1px !important;padding-top: 30px !important;padding-right: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;padding-left: 30px !important;border-left-color: #ededed !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-right-color: #ededed !important;border-right-style: solid !important;border-top-color: #ededed !important;border-top-style: solid !important;border-bottom-color: #ededed !important;border-bottom-style: solid !important;border-radius: 4px !important;}”][vc_featured_box heading_text=”Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP)” content_text=”We have our own PrEP Navigator on staff to field your questions and link you with a provider to get you started on PrEP.
