    HIV Prevention

    Today, more tools than ever are available to prevent HIV. The Let’s Stop HIV Together campaign encourages those at risk for HIV to talk about testing, condoms, pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), and HIV treatment so that they can take action to protect themselves and their partners.

    Condoms are highly effective at preventing both HIV and other STDs.

    HIV Testing

    Knowing your HIV status helps you choose options to stay healthy.

    PrEP

    Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) can greatly reduce your risk of HIV.

    Treatment

    HIV Treatment keeps you healthy and protects others.
