Project HOT has subcontracted the Kind Clinic, a program of Texas Health Action (THA), to deliver Truvada, for Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP), at little to no cost to all who would benefit from this highly effective HIV prevention method.

Some of those doctors continue that fight through research and knowledgeable HIV care, today, and we are fortunate to work alongside two of the country’s finest.
