The best place to reach people is where they are at- meaning
during the course of the day or night; on the street or at the bar;
at the café or the bookstore. HARC staff conducts outreach in a
variety of locations to come into contact with people during real
life situations where they may soon be putting themselves at risk.
Having condoms and a person to talk to at the bar may turn an
unexpected sexual encounter into a safer one.
HARC's outreach van is staffed by trained outreach educators who
can provide HIV/AIDS risk reduction education, safer sex materials,
harm reduction services, HIV counseling and testing, and referrals
other needed services and resources.
