Looking for a new way to protect yourself from HIV?

Let’s talk about injectable PrEP (CAB) — a powerful option for people who don’t have HIV but are at risk through s*x or injection drug use.

Instead of taking a daily pill, CAB lets you stay protected with just one shot every two months. It’s a great fit if:

You have trouble remembering to take pills

You’d rather get a shot than take meds daily

You have kidney issues that make oral PrEP unsafe

Injectable PrEP is approved for adults and teens (77 lbs or more) and is proven to be highly effective at preventing HIV.

Want to know if CAB is right for you? MASS is here to answer questions and help you protect your health — your way.

Call us or stop by our clinic to learn more about your options.

Two and a half years. That's how long it took for news of emancipation to reach Texas after Lincoln signed the proclamation. Freedom delayed, but not denied.

Juneteenth reminds us that liberation is both a moment and a process—one that continues today in how we show up for each other and demand what we deserve.

Our team will be out of the office on Wednesday, June 19. Take the day to do whatever feels right: rest, celebrate, organize, or simply exist without explanation.

Happy Father’s Day to all the fathers, father figures, mentors, and male role models who shape lives every day.
