"Right Choice" Program

The "Right Choice" Program provides community-based HIV prevention education, outreach and referral services for individuals engaging in behaviors that place them at risk for HIV infection.

 

Through the program's community-based outreach program and network of client referral services, Outreach and Counseling Specialists work with clients to educate them on risk-reduction strategies and empower them to reduce their risk for HIV infection. These program components, complemented by our network of referral services will work to reduce the number of people who test positive for HIV within St. Lucie County. "The Right Choice" program has provided Community-based HIV Education and on-site confidential counseling and testing services in areas of St. Lucie County with epidemiologically documented high morbidity areas for HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases.
