Free & Private Rapid HIV Test/HepC Test @ the RC
Monday, January 27th, 2020
05:00 PM - 08:00 PM
Storrs Campus Rainbow Center; Student Union 403
The Rainbow Center is a UConn/Storrs campus spot to get a free and private Rapid HIV/AIDS test and a HepC test which allows for results to be known within the half-hour, made possible with the generous support from the ARROW (AIDS Risk Reduction Outreach Worker) program of Perception Programs, Inc., of Willimantic (http://www.perceptionprogram.org).
This test is free of charge and open to all, however there are approximately TWELVE spots available per day of testing! No appointments will be taken due to the need for privacy. Arrive early because testing is first come, first served. Numbers will be given out to individuals and people need to wait in the office. If a person leaves the office and their number is called, we can substitute another person at our discretion. If a person misses their opportunity to get tested because they need to leave, they can be tested on another day that we offer the testing.
The Rainbow Center is located in room 403 of the Student Union. Dates for the 2019-2020 Academic Year will be:
