What is Sexual Health Awareness Month? It’s for raising awareness about s*xual health issues, educating individuals on s*xual health topics such as s*xually transmitted infections (STIs), promoting safe s*x practices, and encouraging individuals to have open and honest conversations about s*xual well-being.

One step you can take today, is to go and get tested! Our providers are here for you! Call the numbers below or visit our website at www.communityfirsthc.org

Health screenings are so important! They help provide early detection and diagnosis of health conditions. They also give you peace of mind knowing your health status. In the event there is a possible health issue, doing a screening allows you to then address it promptly instead of waiting. Make sure to stay up to date on your health and get those screenings done! ✔️

One conversation can save a life. Talking about su***de isn’t harmful- silence is. Being honest with someone and asking, “How are you really doing?” and truly listening could be the lifeline someone needs today. 💙

This September, join us in raising awareness and breaking the silence around su***de. Together, we can spread hope and prevent loss.

📲Need help? Call or text 988 anytime.
