They are looking for a design that would reflect NYC’s “distinctive culture and style while also promoting safer sex.”

The website says: “Maybe you’ve admired the NYC Condom’s sleek package design. Maybe you even own one or two of the 41 million the Health Department gave away last year. We’re not about to abandon the now-iconic package, but we …continue reading
