ORLANDO, FL – In honor National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day, the Florida Department of Health in Orange County’s Area 7 program will host a free testing event on February 7, 2023, at the Vacation Lodge, 720 South Orange Blossom Trail, Orlando. The event will raise awareness and educate the community on ways to prevent the transmission of the HIV virus.
National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day was developed to increase HIV education, testing, community involvement, and treatment among black communities.
To better serve residents and to fight the spread of HIV within the region, the Florida Department of Health in Orange County (DOH-Orange) offers FREE At-Home HIV testing kits to residents of Orange, Osceola, Seminole, and Brevard counties.
Residents of those counties can request a kit by visiting the Talk Test Treat Central Florida website at https://talktestcfl.com/. The self-administered kit will be mailed to individuals at no cost and comes with step-by-step instructions, the oral testing swab, and test tube. The test is confidential and follow up by DOH-Orange’s Area 7 HIV staff is optional. To learn more about the At-Home HIV Test Kit program, call 407-858-1400 or email Dlchd48area7@flhealth.gov.
