Summer is here – make it a season of good vibes and smart choices. Whether you are meeting someone new, reconnecting with old flames, or making the most of a summer adventure:

- Bring your own condoms.

- Use protection every time (yes, oral counts too).

- Get tested before and after sex with new partners.

A little preparation goes a long way toward keeping the fun going all summer long.
