The Movement offers both free HIV and STI testing during our weekly testing hours, or by appointment.  

Our rapid tests options are HIV, syphilis, and hepatitis C. Rapid tests are 20 minutes max and you will receive your result the same day. All rapid tests are available for the public.  

Other STI tests, such as chlamydia and gonorrhea, are only available for gay, bisexual, queer-identified men and transgender individuals. You will receive the result for these two tests within 10-14 days.  

If you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment, please call us at 504-267-4288.
