Description

Comprehensive Care Center HIP Outreach Prevention Team performed confidential HIV testing and pre/post test counseling at the Sistrunk Festival in the CHS mobile health center to make access to testing easier for residents living in the area. Annually, The Sistrunk Festival is held to acknowledge and celebrate the achievements of African American pioneers who paved the way equitable access to healthcare and other services that were critically needed by people of color living in Fort Lauderdale. BHCHS participated in two events, such as the parade and street festival. Our participation reinforced the presence of our local network of community health centers.
