Sexual Health Improvement Program (SHIP)
Want to improve your sexual health? Wondering if PrEP is right for you? We can help.
About the program
The Sexual Health Improvement Program (SHIP) provides a safe space for HIV-negative men, women, and transgender people to access sexual health services and tools like HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP)—a daily pill that dramatically lowers the risk of HIV infection. Our providers can help you decide whether PrEP is right for you.
In addition, SHIP offers HIV testing, screening and treatment for other sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and HIV post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) to prevent HIV infection if you know you were recently exposed.
PrEP is an opportunity for partners to enjoy more intimacy and safety during sex. Let SHIP enhance your relationships moving forward.
