New Project LAUNCH!!
Good Vibes
Your health. Your choices. Your power.
A community-centered program focused on HIV prevention, education, and access to life‑saving tools like PrEP, PEP, and Doxy/PEP.
Good Vibes Connects People to the Tools That Keep Them Safe
Good Vibes is designed for both community members and healthcare staff. We help people:
Understand PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP
Recognize real‑world HIV risk (not stereotypes)
Learn how to talk with providers about sexual health
Access our PrEP Toolkit, a practical resource for learning, prescribing, and connecting to care
Build confidence in making decisions that protect themselves and their partners
Our goal is simple: everyone deserves accurate information and the chance to stay healthy.
Good Vibes Education & Networking Event!
June 9th 5:30-7:30pm

HIV Prevention Matters — And So Does Accurate Information
In Michigan, over 60% of new HIV diagnoses are among cisgender, heterosexual individuals, with a large percentage being Black and Brown community members.
Even more concerning:
100% of newly diagnosed individuals did not know they were at risk
100% had never heard of PrEP or PEP
Many engage in behaviors that increase risk, such as injection drug use or having partners of multiple genders
And in healthcare settings, 50–70% of sexual health histories are left blank, meaning providers miss critical opportunities to keep patients safe
Good Vibes exists to close these gaps — with compassion, clarity, and culturally grounded education.
