HIV Prevention Education and Outreach
Positive Connections varied Prevention programs are designed to reduce future HIV and STI infections in the community by raising awareness, educating about risks, overcoming misconceptions, and providing individuals with the knowledge and tools to make safer, healthier choices.
Prevention educators provide tailored presentations to different sectors of the community, including public schools and universities, youth groups, correctional facilities, rehabilitation centers, and other providers of social services. Presentations range from short "HIV 101" programs to more comprehensive sex and sexuality programs that go into depth about risks and prevention tools for HIV, STIs, and unwanted pregnancies. Educators work with each group to develop presentations that are age- and experience-appropriate while covering the necessary content.
Positive Connections also works with partners in the community to raise awareness and deliver education messages through National HIV Awareness Day events throughout the year. Visit the Events page for more information about upcoming awareness days.
Positive Connections provides free Rapid HIV testing with the RESPECT intervention in our office and at various outreach events in the community. RESPECT is an evidence-based intervention recommended by the CDC for helping clients identify risk behaviors and develop risk-reduction plans to utilize in the future. Free condoms are also always available in our office, no questions asked!
