Rapid, oral, anonymous testing is available by appointment. It's free, quick, and painless, but most important, it gives you a great feeling knowing where you stand.

It's important to recognize the difference between “anonymous” and “confidential.” The testing here is anonymous…your name appears nowhere on any paperwork (you don't even have to give your real name to make an appointment), so your test can not be tracked by an insurance company, bank, potential employer or anyone else.

We know that taking an HIV test can be a bit scary. You'll be in a private space, and everything will be done to make you feel comfortable talking about what is happening in your life. It is a chance to have your questions answered about your sexual relationships, and even better, a chance to take an inventory and make decisions about your own sex activities and ways to make them as enjoyable and as safe as possible. You can even get free safer sex supplies, and even better: ideas on making them fun and convenient.

A test appointment can be scheduled at the Augusta office or another setting that is convenient for you. Most important is to call…let's talk about you and what's happening in your life: 620-1448 (1-HIV). (This number is a private, secure line.)
