HIV Education & Counseling
HIV Education and Counseling are provided through HIV Set-Aside funding. 

What is HIV Set-Aside?
The Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grant (SAPTBG) HIV Set-Aside Program has been delivering services for the past ten years. It is the only program in Solano County that specifically targets clients that are in substance abuse treatment programs by providing early intervention services. Since its inception, the emphasis has been to educate, counsel, test, and be a support/referral source to anyone testing positive for the HIV antibody.
What services are available?
HIV set-aside provides education and testing services.
How and where can I get services?
Education groups are scheduled throughout Solano County at: substance abuse treatment programs, high schools, juvenile hall, middle schools, homeless shelters, and also upon request by a community member. All education sessions are delivered by a contract with an HIV Educator. For more information on HIV education, please call: (707) 784-2236.

Testing services are scheduled in advance at all substance abuse treatment programs and juvenile hall. From time to time a request is made from the courts or probation to give a test to someone involved with their agency. For more information on testing, please call: (707) 784-2236.
