We also aim to educate at-risk negative youth on HIV prevention. We achieve this mission by providing free, non-judgmental, anonymous/confidential HIV Counseling and Testing, as well as comprehensive dialogue and activity based health education workshops throughout New York City and adjacent boroughs.
