Condom Distribution Program

DDP organizes and distributes free condoms through a free program - the DDP Condom Distribution Program.  This program is aimed at reducing HIV and other sexually transmitted infections in Virginia through free and accessible condom access. 

There are currently over partner agencies in the program that receive condoms from VDH.  Both local health districts and community partners are able to enroll in this program.  Organizations that participate in the program may order up to 100,000 condoms a year.  Agencies with multiple locations/sites may be approved to order more.  Smaller quantities of specialty condoms such as insertive, non-latex, and Trojan condoms are also available.

If your organization is interested in becoming a distribution site through the VDH Condom Distribution Program, please contact Brandon Cunningham, Hotline Supervisor, at hiv-stdhotline@vdh.virginia.gov for a program agreement form.  If you are already a participating agency and need to order more condoms, find the order forms below.

Contact Brandon if you have any questions about the program or the order forms.  Please follow the instructions on the order form to complete the form and return them electronically to the Hotline Supervisor.

Training & Technical Assistance

Virginia HIV/AIDS Resource and Consultation Center (VHARCC) works with health care providers, community-based AIDS service organizations, government agencies, professional associations, and academic and community health care centers to offer multidisciplinary education programs and consultations on HIV/AIDS-related issues.

Community-based organizations funded by VDH to provide HIV prevention interventions may request capacity building and technical assistance.  To do so, please contact your VDH contract monitor and discuss your needs and possible solutions.

Resource Connections

The Division of Disease Prevention maintains an online web-based, searchable directory for community resources.  The directory allows users to search for services and provides information about eligibility requirements, intake procedures, and documentation and/or fees associated with each service location.

Community organizations that are already included in the directory can create an account on the site and submit corrections through the site.  Subrecipients of DDP are required to have a Resource Connections account setup and to update their agency details annually.

VDH Resource Connections can be accessed at https://bit.ly/vdhconnections.

Feedback and questions on the directory should be submitted to Brandon Cunningham at brandon.cunningham@vdh.virginia.gov.
