We often talk about how Iris House's prevention and outreach teams are out and about: in 2016, we delivered high-touch HIV101 and Prevention Interventions to nearly 700 people and provided 2200 individuals with HIV, Hepatitis C and STI testing. But that doesn't even come close to counting the thousands of people we interact with in health fairs, street fairs and other events.
June is a particularly busy month in the field for Iris House, and our teams appeared in full purple and orange at Queens Pride, Brooklyn Pride, the Bronx Borough President's Pride Celebration, NYC's Pride March, NYC Pride Fest, the Puerto Rican Day Parade and Folsom Street East. Special mention to our team members Antionettea Etienne and Leroy S., whose presence in any Pride Celebration brings cheers of welcome and recognition -- for both them and Iris House!
This year, we were especially delighted to be selected this year as beneficiaries of not only Folsom Street East, but also of a pre-FSE party thrown by the Bully Boyz at the New York Eagle.
