Free HIV Testing

Free HIV Testing is a program of HAF, a community based health organization fully dedicated to improving health outcomes of New Yorkers. In sponsoring Free HIV Testing for all New Yorkers we pledge to provide concrete support to those who are living with HIV while stemming the spread of HIV. We firmly believe that Knowing is Better, therefore we encourage all New Yorkers to test for HIV sooner rather than later. We pledge to be by your side every step of the way.
