There are more than 20 different infections that can be transmitted during sex. That is why it is crucial that anyone who is having sex to be tested regularly. APLA Health is here to make sure that we are able to meet the needs of our community and stop the spread of not only HIV, but all STDs.

Getting tested regularly will not prevent any STDs, but it will help prevent medical complications associated with STDs. Waiting too long to get tested may result in irreversible damage to your health.

Fortunately, APLA Health provides free or low-cost STD testing and treatment in the communities where people live and around their schedule.

We don’t need to know where you’ve been, we just need to see you.
