The Community Health Outreach Work to Prevent AIDS Project (CHOW Project)

We are the statewide syringe exchange for Hawai'i, covering the 4 major islands. Along with our exchange activities, we give hepatitis C tests, do hep C education, and have a hepatitis care coordinator who helps folks who are positive link to care and treatment. We partner heavily with our state's viral hepatitis coordinator to do outreach, education, and events, including offering hepatitis A & B vaccines at health fairs for our syringe exchange participants.
