Get a free HIV self-test kit through the mail

The getmyHIVtest.com program was created by the Pennsylvania Expanded HIV Testing Initiative at Penn State University and the HIV Prevention and Care Project (HPCP) at the University of Pittsburgh, with support from the Pennsylvania Department of Health.

Knowing your HIV status is the first step in preventing the spread of the virus. People who test positive can obtain treatment that keeps the virus in check, and therefore makes it less likely to spread to others.

To obtain a free HIV self-test kit, go to www.getmyHIVtest.com. Taking care of your sexual health is part of taking care of our community.

Note that an HIV test kit doesn’t detect other STIs such as syphilis or gonorrhoea. For other STI testing resources, you can search the CDC database at https://gettested.cdc.gov/. For other testing and prevention information, visit the HIV Prevention and Care Project online.
