Let's Talk About It

African American are disproportionately impacted by HIV/AIDS. People avoid getting tested due to the stigma and lack of awareness. Let’s talk about it! It’s time to break free from the stigma of getting tested.

At The Project, patients have access to a wide range of services, including medical and dental care, behavioral health support, case management, and other resources—all in one place.

Our caring team is dedicated to providing complete, personalized care to help each patient achieve a healthy and fulfilling life.
