Taking Health on the Road You are here:HomeNewsroomNews For many people on parole or probation, traditional healthcare can feel out of reach. The C No More project is changing that. Run by St Vincent’s Hospital Melbourne in partnership with Burnet Institute and Harm Reduction Victoria, and with funding from Gilead Sciences, the mobile service brings free hepatitis C testing and treatment directly to people on community corrections orders. Led by nurses and lived-experience peer workers, C No More offers a safe, non-judgmental space to ask questions, get tested, and start treatment. Since launching in 2023, the service has helped hundreds of people take control of their health — often completing testing and beginning treatment in just one visit. Have you ever been to prison or on a community corrections order? Have you ever injected drugs – even a long time ago? Come say hello to our friendly nurses and harm reduction peer worker. Check our schedule to see where we will be stopping next. In 2025, the program expanded to include screening for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and blood-borne viruses (BBVs), along with free hepatitis B and flu vaccinations. St Vincent’s recently welcomed The Hon. Enver Erdogan MP, Minister for Corrections, to the C No More van, at one of its regular stops. Professor Alex Thompson at St Vincent’s Hospital Melbourne, said partnerships like C No More show what’s possible when health and justice services work together to remove barriers to care. “This is how we reach people who might otherwise miss out on life-changing treatment,” he said. Peer mentor Mark Belzer sees the difference first-hand. “We meet people where they are and empower them the tools to take control of their health,” he said.
