Steps Toward Sexual Safety
Sexual Health Clinic
The clinic provides PrEP medication as well as testing for sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
Taking medication before being exposed to HIV can reduce the chances of infection! This is called “Pre-exposure prophylaxis” or “PrEP”. You can meet with a provider virtually or in person to determine if you are a good candidate for PrEP medication. If so, our provider will work with you to set up all needed testing (HIV, other labs) and provide you with a prescription. You can also connect with our PrEP Navigator to help you with the financial cost of PrEP and other barriers to taking PrEP.
At our clinic you can meet with a nurse or provider to determine what STI testing you need.
- For telehealth: After you meet with our staff via telehealth you will be scheduled to complete specimen collection in our office.
- For in-person appointments: You will meet with our staff at our Eugene or Roseburg clinic locations and complete specimen collection during the appointment.
HIV Alliance is also able to provide rapid testing for HIV, hepatitis C, and syphilis. For information on rapid testing, click here.

Care you can Count on
Primary Care
Primary care specialists serve as your entry point to medical care. In addition to providing care for chronic illnesses such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and asthma, they make sure you are receiving the appropriate screening tests for cancer and other illnesses. If you need the care of another specialist they will help get you that care.
At the Alliance for Community Wellness (ACW) we are pleased to offer patient centered, compassionate, inclusive and gender affirming care. This includes LGBTQIA specific care and hormone prescribing as needed.
You do not need to be enrolled in primary care with us to receive care for the above illnesses.
We are also experts in the care of people who may have, or concerned they are at risk for, the following illnesses.
- People living with HIV/AIDS, including the ability to test for HIV and begin a rapid start treatment protocol. We will assist you in getting ongoing HIV care from highly trained infectious disease specialists with whom we collaborate very closely.
- People at risk for HIV/AIDS: We offer both PrEP and PEP to anyone who is at high risk for HIV/AIDS
- Hepatitis C: We can screen, diagnose, and treat almost anyone who has hepatitis C. If you need a higher level of care, we will assist in getting you there.
- STIs: We can screen, diagnose, and treat gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and trichomoniasis, and we can provide partner therapy for gonorrhea and chlamydia.
