The following are the other locations that will be offering free confidential HIV testing tomorrow:

This comes as part of Orange County’s participation in the federal initiative, Ending the HIV Epidemic. Orange County is participating in this five-year federal initiative to increase the proportion of people with HIV who are virally suppressed to 90%, increase the percentage of people with HIV who have received an HIV diagnosis to 90%, and ultimately reduce new HIV infections in Orange County to no more than 115 by the year 2030.
More information regarding the free and confidential testing tomorrow can be found when calling 407-858-1400.
