Prevention is stronger when we work together.

Every conversation — between friends, families, teachers, and neighbors — helps shape healthy choices and keeps youth alcohol-free.

When we speak up and support one another, we create a community where prevention grows stronger with every voice.

Today is National Women and Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Day. While most people aren't aware of this, about 23 percent of people living with HIV in the United States are women, and women make up roughly 20 percent of new diagnoses, according to CDC data. The highest number of new diagnoses were among women ages 25-44.

Advances in treatment and prevention have resulted in progress toward the nation’s goal to end the HIV epidemic by 2030. We can help. The first step is to know your status through testing. Our team is out in the community testing every week. We also offer home test kits that you can use in the privacy of your own home.

We're with you every step of the way. Learn more at NKYHealth.org/HIVtesting, which includes a calendar of where we will be offering testing services.

There’s a line between entertainment and something that starts to feel out of control.

If gambling is:
• Causing stress
• Affecting your finances
• Impacting relationships
• Hard to stop even when you want to

You’re not alone and you’re not the only one feeling this way.

Support is available and confidential.
