Manitoba Community Event-Based STBBI Testing

This guide is for community-based organizations, peer groups, and event organizers
who are not healthcare professionals but want to increase access to STBBI* testing
in their communities. If you’re a healthcare provider who wants to partner with the
community this guide has lots to offer you, too! This toolkit can be used to plan any
sized event, big or small, with its own budget or just the resources you have on hand
and in-kind support from partners.
We’ve seen the effectiveness of doing testing in the community and have drawn
on the experience and input of community-based event organizers, healthcare
providers, and most importantly, the groups of participants who have planned,
attended, and gotten tested at these events to put together this guide.
