PrEP is here.
If you're HIV negative and want to stay that way, PrEP may be perfect for you.
Taking just one daily pill can reduce the risk of acquiring HIV by up to 99%. Or stop by
every other month to get a shot. It's as easy as that! And accessing it is simple.

If you’re uninsured or can’t afford PrEP, you can still access this incredible medication! We’ll connect you with a navigator who will help you get access.

Everyone is Eligible
Our community care services - from our PrEP, PEP, and HIV/STI testing clinics to our syringe service program - are available to the public, no strings attached.
These services are also completely free, even if you don't have insurance. Just ask. We'll ensure you get the care you need.
Support for People Living with HIV
If you're already living with HIV, we offer healthy community meals, a food shelf you shop yourself, confidential case management and housing support, peer-led discussion groups, and more.
All Minnesota residents with a confirmed HIV diagnosis are eligible to become members of The Aliveness Project.
Together, We Can End the
HIV Epidemic
For nearly 40 years, we've been dreaming of a world where HIV is a thing of the past.
And we can actually get there if everyone can access preventive care and regular HIV testing - and people living with HIV have the ongoing support we need to maintain a viral load so low it's "undetectable".
When your HIV is undetectable, you can't transmit it. And when you can't transmit HIV, it can't spread. Undetectable = Untransmittable!
Which means: When everyone gets the care they deserve, we all win.
