ATLANTA — PASS, the Performer Availability Screening Service, has added MPOWERR Health and Wellness of Atlanta as its newest testing partner.
The new non-profit healthcare provider offers a full test panel for $125, with insurance reducing this cost to as low as $50.
"With the global growth of the creator community, it’s critical that we work with labs and networks outside the major production hubs," said PASS Executive Director Ian O'Brien. "MPOWERR is an incredible community-based organization that provides not only testing, but STI treatment, HIV care, PrEP, mental health and substance abuse services. They are already working with adult performers and creators, and we’re excited to welcome them to PASS."
MPOWERR currently offers a PASS panel with a 48-hour turnaround. MPOWERR CEO Taurus Jerelds noted that the organization is working to secure grants and funding to reduce the turnaround time, as well as to eventually provide testing for free.
"We’ve already been providing testing for performers, so we’re eager to connect with PASS," Jerelds said. "I launched MPOWERR to help reach underserved and hard-to-reach populations, and I know the importance of being able to provide testing and care in a supportive, stigma-free environment. I’m excited to bring our services to the adult industry, and look forward to connecting with more of the incredible people working in it."
