We offer a free, 20 min HIV test that you can take at home and just requires you to swab your cheek to run the test.

Eligibility: You must be at least 18 years old, have a MO shipping address, and agree to share your test result with Project ARK.  One kit can be sent per person.

Process:

  1. Request a free HIV test kit through one of two methods:
  2. Complete a secure online request, or call (314) 282-1581 (Mon-Fri 9am-5pm)
  3. If you choose to have it shipped, you will receive it within 2-3 days. Or you can arrange a time to pick it up at our office (4169 Laclede).  
  4. Once you receive the kit, you can then do the test on your own or on the phone with one of our trained testing staff. 
  5. Give us a call when you have completed your test (314-282-1581).
  6. We will discuss your result and offer additional resources that you may need, such as other STI testing, PrEP referrals or linkage to HIV care.  

Call (314) 282-1581 (Mon-Fri 9am-5pm) at any point in the process for assistance or to ask questions.
