HIV Alliance is here to inform and answer questions about HIV prevention, awareness, and testing. Additionally, our online outreach experts are available to answer questions and/or provide resources to information regarding STIs, safer sex practices, and general sexual health and wellness inquiries. We have a presence on sites that include: Adam4Adam, Craigslist, Growlr, Grindr, Scruff, and Manhunt. We are committed to meeting the community where they are, to provide the easiest access to information and services possible. If you know of an app or website whose users would benefit from our knowledge and resources, please contact the Outreach Coordinator.

HIV Alliance attends many events within the men who have sex with men, the trans*, and gender non-conforming communities. Our outreach efforts focus on events serving LGBTQ+ identified individuals, public sex environments, the college and university, and partnering with other organizations. Our Outreach Team is a visible presence within the community providing free, confidential information and resources in line with our harm reduction philosophy. We believe wholeheartedly that it is imperative for our community to have a resource to turn to, be it for safer sex practices and resources such as lube and condoms, asking questions about STIs and HIV, or seeking out resources and knowledge.

  • Dispels myths about transmission; and presents current local and national statistics.

HIV 101 is an interactive workshop designed to inform and educate the public on the basics of HIV and Hepatitis C (HCV) transmission, prevention and related stigmas.

Each HIV 101 presentation focuses on the following information: How HIV and HCV are transmitted, ways to address/reduce HIV and HCV-related stigma, ways to prevent/reduce new HIV and HCV infections, and how HIV and HCV cannot be contracted.

These presentations can be adapted to fit the needs and age level of the audience. They are an excellent complement to a comprehensive HIV/AIDS curriculum and help instructors fulfill the Oregon Department of Education Infectious Diseases requirement.
