Kansas State University's LGBT Resource Center in Intercultural Learning and Academic Success is partnering monthly with Positive Connections to bring free HIV/STI testing to the Manhattan campus. Testing is free and confidential and provided by licensed testing specialists. All students, faculty and staff are encouraged to get tested.

Registration and testing can be accessed through the K-State Student Union ground entrance to the Morris Family Multicultural Student Center from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Thursday, April 22. 

Free testing events will continue to be available each month in fall 2021. For any further questions please reach out to the LGBT Resource Center at lgbt@k-state.edu
