Get Tested during HIV Testing Week!
Los Angeles County's HIV Counseling and Testing Week (HCTW) will be held on June 24th until June 30th. The purpose of HCTW is to promote and encourage early detection and treatment of HIV, educate the public that sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) increase the risk of HIV infection, and promote awareness of risky behaviors that increase the risk for HIV infection. This will be the 10th year that LA County observes HIV Counseling and Testing week.
Los Angeles County has been critically impacted by the HIV/AIDS epidemic, with nearly 30,000 residents who have died from AIDS and approximately 58,000 individuals who are known to be living with HIV and AIDS. In 2005, persons of color accounted for approximately 75 percent of AIDS cases diagnosed in Los Angeles County.
To get tested, please call our office at (213)553-1830. We will also be street testing with Prevention on Wheel on Tuesday, June 26th at the following location: 2810 Hyperion Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90027.
