Erase Doubt
 


Erase doubt is an HIV testing and prevention campaign aimed at getting gay men of color and women of color tested for HIV. The initiative was created to increase HIV testing in LA County, drive awareness of HIV prevention, and provide information about HIV/AIDS treatment and care. The EraseDoubt.org web site was developed as an online resource center for Los Angeles County residents at risk of contracting HIV/AIDS and/or living with HIV/AIDS.
