Program Description

The Para Ayudar (Spanish for “to help”) program offers free and confidential services in Spanish and English, focused on health issues: alcohol, tobacco, and substance use, sexual behavior, and access to services for Latino immigrant, men who have sex with men (MSM), transgender women (TGW), and men who have sex with transgender women (MSTGW). MetroCards are provided to assist you in transportation costs for every session. Incentives are available for your participation in the program. We also offer HIV rapid testing on site. Program services consist of outreach, case management, and counseling, working together to provide the best assistance possible to individuals who are seeking help.
