Get PrEP'd for Sex!
The Importance of STI Screening
Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) are infections that are passed from one person to another through unprotected sexual contact. A person can be diagnosed regardless of their sexuality, race, or ethnicity. Know your STI status to ensure you and your partner(s) are staying safe and healthy.
What is PrEP & PEP?
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a virus that weakens the immune system. It’s most commonly transmitted through unprotected sex or by sharing drug injection equipment, such as needles or syringes.
“PrEP” is short for pre-exposure prophylaxis. And is the preventative process of taking prescribed medication to lessen the chances of becoming infected with HIV.
On the other hand, PEP stands for post-exposure prophylaxis and refers to the taking of prescribed medication after a potential HIV exposure.

Do you think you’ve been exposed to HIV? PEP medication can help! If you are HIV-negative and think you may have been recently exposed to HIV, get PEP treatment within 72 hours of exposure to reduce the likelihood of becoming infected with HIV.
I was sure I had hepatitis C and HIV because of my lifestyle but I was scared to get tested and what people would think. I talked to the VEN person who spent time explaining to me why it was good to get tested and how it could help me. I decided to get tested and found out I don’t have hep C or HIV at all. I can take steps now to make sure I stay healthy and don’t get hep C or HIV and I can call VEN anytime for help and for information.
