South Carolina Self-Testing Program
The first step to protecting yourself and your contacts against HIV is to get tested. Now, that step is easier than ever with free at-home testing available to South Carolina residents. With OraQuick In-Home HIV Test Kit, you can test yourself for HIV and find out your status in as little as 20 minutes, without ever leaving your home.
To request a Home Testing Kit, you must meet the following requirements:
- Be a South Carolina resident
- Be 17 years of age or older
- Have not ordered a Home Testing Kit in the past 90 days
To process your request, you must provide:
- Contact information (including a working cellphone with the ability to text and/or a working email address). This information will be used to send you a home testing kit and provide you with shipping information. Without this information we will not be able to process your request.
How to order the In-Home HIV Test
To order a Home Testing Kit, complete the survey. All survey responses are confidential, and the information you provide is ONLY used to evaluate and improve this program. This survey should take no longer than 5 minutes.
You can request a test once every 90 days.
