let’s get real about drug use on dating apps

This year we are asking community health leaders and dating app users about ways to better address drug use on the apps.

Sign up to let the apps know what you think.

Our dating app partners respond to what users want:

Mpox vaccination/ immune status profile field

HIV & STI TESTING CLINICS MAP

IN-APP BUTTON FOR NATIONAL HIV SELF-TESTING PROGRAM

Ways dating platforms can be niceaf:

  • Provide a comprehensive list of safer sex practices & drug/alcohol use preferences for users to put in their profile

  • Allow users to search for others by: age, gender, race/ethnicity, safer sex practices, and drug/alcohol preferences

  • Educate users about app features when they sign up and when new features are added

  • Make unlimited blocks free to all users so they can protect themselves from abuse

  • Make sexual health info easy to find

  • Encourage users to complete their profiles and use sexual health features

ANOTHER WAY APPS ARE BEING NICEAF:
