India Launches First Queer-Centered HIV Prevention Tool
Safe Access, a group that helps queer and trans people in India, made a new tool to help people find HIV prevention medicines.
These medicines, called PrEP and PEP, help stop HIV before it starts.
The tool is like a map that shows where to get these medicines, how much they cost, and who can help.
It's free, easy to use, and keeps people's information private.
The tool is important because it helps people get the medicines they need without feeling scared or judged.
Safe Access hopes this tool will make it easier for everyone to stay healthy.
Safe Access launched India's first PrEP/PEP Locator tool in September 2025.
The tool helps queer and trans individuals find HIV prevention medicines easily and anonymously.
It provides information on queer-affirming doctors, PEP access points, PrEP providers, and pricing.
The tool is community-vetted, ensuring providers are trusted and reviewed by the community.
Safe Access aims to make HIV prevention accessible to everyone, regardless of identity or location.
