NOTE: Concordia Health Services is for registered students of Concordia, as well as staff and faculty of the University.
Free HIV self-testing kits
By participating in the I’m Ready national research program, you can get free HIV self-testing kits delivered to your home, or pick them up on campus, including at the Centre for Gender Advocacy and at the Concordia Student Union. The program provides support with testing through telehealth, and connection to care and treatment. And by answering the surveys, you will help improve HIV testing and care in Canada.
