Assemblyman Anthony Portantino tells us in his newsletter that, in observance of National HIV Testing Day next Sat., June 27, he will be hosting free HIV testing at Vroman's Bookstore in Pasadena.
Says Portantino:
Although HIV
continues to spread and is particularly spreading
among minority women, there is a persistent stigma
attached to testing. That's why I am going to be tested
and am inviting the public to have their cheeks
swabbed in a rapid and confidential HIV test. Testing
will take place from 10 AM to 1 PM at the patio adjacent
to Vroman's Bookstore at 695 E. Colorado Blvd,
Pasadena. Spread the word and join me for testing
and/or education provided by the Pasadena Public
Health Department and AIDS Service Center.
