Free COVID-19 testing is coming to the Kennedy High School campus in Richmond from June 29 through August 16.

Testing will occur Monday through Thursday from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. in 500 Building/County Health Clinic at the school at 4300 Cutting Blvd.

To be tested, you must make a telephone appointment by calling 1 (844) 421-0804. There is no walk-up testing without an appointment. Tests are available for those with or without symptoms and are quick, painless and provides results within days.

The testing is part of a partnership between Contra Costa Health Services and the West Contra Costa Unified School District.
