I thought I'd put my 2 cents in, and dug this up:

   "The first ever Hepatitis Testing Day will take place in hundreds of communities across the United States on May 19, 2012. The American Liver Foundation will join local Departments of Health, hospitals, and community based organizations in raising awareness, directing people to testing locations, and offering education materials and information. The Northern CA division will be joining the Asian Heritage Street Celebration during this very special day along with the members of UC Berkeley’s Volunteer Health Interpreters Organization (VHIO). Together, we will be educating children and adults on the ABC’s of hepatitis and liver health in Cantonese, Mandarin, and English.

Free hepatitis testing will be available on site in collaboration with Hep B C Alliance, Hep C Task Force, Hep CA, and Hep B Free.

For more information, please click here. If you are interested in volunteering, give ALF a call at 415-248-1060.

Hey, that site has some great links. One shows all states that are offering  Free Hep Testing sometime in May. Texas is not listed on here which is a shame since it is a huge state.
