NYC Resources - HIV Testing Sites

Anonymous HIV Testing Sites

The locations listed below are Department of Health anonymous HIV testing sites. Many of these locations also offer free and confidential STD services, although their hours may vary. These testing sites do not require you to give your name or any other identifying information. Therefore, the test results can never be linked to you. If you test positive, they may ask for your name, but you don’t have to give it to them.

You may call the New York City Department of Health at (800) TALK HIV or (800) 825-5448 or at (212) 447-8200 (follow the instructions to reach the AIDS hotline) with questions regarding anonymous HIV testing or to make an appointment at one of these sites.

PARTNER NOTIFICATION: If you test positive, you will be asked to give the names of your sexual (and needle sharing) partners over the last ten years. You do not have to give away any names. If you choose to give names, the department of health will contact these people to tell them that they have been exposed to the virus, and urge them to get tested. They will not reveal your name. Individuals are urged to consider their ethical obligation to let others know of their possible exposure to HIV.

To facilitate this the NYC Department of Health offers assistance through its Contact Notification Assistance Program (CNAP) at (212) 693-1419. For New York State, you may call the NYS HIV/AIDS information service hotline for the Partner Notification Assistance Program (PNAP) phone number for your area.
