About the program
The Confidential
Counseling and Testing program provides a way for persons at risk for HIV infection to learn their HIV status and to learn how to reduce their risk of HIV infection. No names are used when scheduling appointments. Clients are given a number to identify themselves and their test results. At the time of testing the client chooses either confidential or anonymous testing. The program also provides up-to-date factual information on HIV/AIDS in order to promote responsible decision-making and HIV infection risk reduction. 

HIV stands for
Human Immunodeficiency Virus, the virus that causes AIDS. 

Counseling
Talking over your risk of HIV infection, how to lower your risk and stay healthy, information on AIDS, and the test itself.

Testing
A saliva or blood test looks for antibodies to HIV. This is the only way tell if someone is carrying HIV.
