Free and confidential HIV testing at Colorado AIDS Project


Colorado AIDS Project encourages all individuals to know their HIV status and offers free and confidential testing for youth and adults.

Testing is available Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. by appointment. Walk-ins can come every Thursday from 3-7 p.m. Testing is located at Colorado AIDS Project's offices at 2490 W. 26th Ave., Building A, Suite 300 in Denver and is available to anyone 13 years and older.

To ensure availability for testing, make an appointment with Athena Lansing at 303 837-0166 ext. 464 or email her at athenal@coloradoaidsproject.org.

Confidential testing is done with the OraQuick ADVANCE Rapid HIV Test and results are ready after 20 minutes.

CAP recognizes that testing may be difficult and scary so they strive to create the most comfortable and supportive environment possible. CAP pledges its support to those who learn they are HIV-positive and will serve as a bridge between testing positive and connecting with more comprehensive CAP client services.
