GetaKit is a free self-testing kit for HIV that can be mailed to you or picked up at a designated pick-up location, like us!

What are the benefits of HIV self-testing? You can pick up self-tests from more convenient locations, test yourself and read your results in private, when and where you want.

For folks who are at high risk of HIV infection, testing is the first step in accessing prevention interventions, such as pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP).

The pick-up service is for HIV self-testing kits only, but our team can also guide you through the process to access lab-based testing for HIV, syphilis, hepatitis C, gonorrhea, and chlamydia. We've got your back!

Pick-up information:
Staff can be reached at 613-226-3234 ext 101 or [email protected]

Folks can pick up kits anytime during our drop-in hours every Monday to Friday from 12-4pm. We will also accommodate other pick- up times by appointment only.

Planned Parenthood Ottawa,
222 Somerset St W, Suite 404, Ottawa, ON K2P 2G3.

See you soon!

Love, PPO ❤️

Planned Parenthood Ottawa will be closed on September 30 in recognition of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

Today, we honour the children who never returned home, the Survivors of residential schools, their families, and Indigenous communities.

This day is an opportunity to reflect on the lasting impacts of the residential school system, to listen to and learn from Indigenous voices, and to recognize our shared responsibility in the ongoing work of truth and reconciliation.

We encourage our community to take time today to learn, reflect, and honour the strength, resilience, cultures, and histories of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples.

We will return to our regular hours on October 1.
