Rapid HIV/HepC Testing

The Rainbow Center is a UConn/Storrs campus spot to get a FREE and private Rapid HIV test, a Rapid Hepatitis C test, and a Rapid Syphilis Test, which allows for results to be known within the half-hour!  The tests are free of charge, thanks to the generous support of the Connecticut Harm Reduction Alliance, located in Hartford, CT.  The tested sample comes from a simple finger prick.

    This test is free of charge and open to all; however, there are approximately 20 spots available per day of testing, allowing for about 20 minutes for each test! 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.

    The Rainbow Center is in Room 403 on the fourth floor of the Student Union.

    If you need resources outside of our testing dates, check out the ones at the CT Department of Public Health for HIV prevention.
