In recognition of National Youth HIV/AIDS Awareness Day, Rural Health Services highlighted the importance of education, testing, and preventive care for young people in our community.

As part of an ongoing partnership with USC Aiken to bring students affordable access to health care and preventive sexual health services, Grayson was able to test 10 students for HIV and STIs. He and our sexual health clinical staff maintain our organization’s purpose and mission by addressing a crucial health concern for this population as youth ages 13–24 are 20% of all U.S. HIV diagnoses.

By expanding access to testing, education, and preventive care, Rural Health Services remains committed to supporting healthier outcomes for the next generation.
