The Project operates a weekly HIV testing program called Take Charge! Get Tested! to help Rhode Islanders learn their HIV status in a safe, comfortable, and private environment.   We have licensed HIV testing counselors who perform anonymous rapid HIV testing for free every Tuesday from 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm on an appointment and walk-in basis.  If you can’t make it on a Tuesday afternoon, contact us and we will see what we can do to find another time for you to make an appointment with us.

To learn about the HIV testing at The Project just click on the  3 easy steps to find out more.   In addition, many people have concerns and anxiety about getting an HIV test, so we developed a list of common Questions & Answers to help people know what to expect when they arrive for their HIV test.

We tried to cover everything you want to know in the Questions & Answers - including information about our gay-friendly staff, parking, bringing a friend for support, and how long it will take to know the result of the test.  Our goal is to help all people, regardless of their age, gender, sexual orientation, and race/ethnicity, feel welcome and comfortable getting their HIV test at The Project.
