National
STD and AIDS Hotline
(back to top)
Information:
The National STD and aids hotline provides Free
Sexually Transmitted Disease information and
clinic referrals. Operators are available 24
hours a day, 7 days a week for those needing
assistance and information about STDs and HIV/AIDS.
The ability of a caller to get through to a
live operator will be greatly enhanced. Call
blockage will be significantly reduced. Operators
will now be thoroughly knowledgeable about both
STDs and HIV/AIDS. The phone numbers for the
hotlines remain the same, and are listed below.
Information is the first line of defense in
preventing STD and HIV infection. Unfortunately,
there is still a great deal of stigma attached
to discussions of these issues. The CDC National
STD and AIDS Hotlines can help by offering reliable
information in a friendly, non-threatening,
non-judgmental atmosphere. The hotline is operated
under contract by the American Social Health
Association (ASHA), a non-profit organization
dedicated solely to the prevention and control
of STDs. For answers to your STD/AIDS related
questions, referrals to local test sites, treatment
centers, or other services, please call!
