Safer Sex
The Southern Nevada Association of PRIDE Inc. created the Safer Sex program in an effort to help promote widespread access, usage and acceptance of condoms as a vital component of AIDS prevention. As a part of this program, Las Vegas PRIDE makes free safer sex kits available at many of our events throughout the year.
