Erie Teen Health Center is Chicago’s oldest and largest comprehensive health center for teens and young adults.

Because we know that being a teenager isn’t always easy, we’re here to help teens with a wide variety of services, including low-cost contraception and counseling.

STI Testing and Treament

The Teen Center offers confidential STI/HIV testing. You do not have to be an established Erie patient to receive testing.

Don’t worry about money, either. If you are unable to pay, we have resources that will help to pay for your testing.

Due to COVID restrictions, walk-in testing is not available. Please call for appointments and testing.

Confidential Visits

Your confidentiality is important to us. If you are 12 years of age or over, in the state of Illinois you can see a provider for the following services without needing the consent of a parent or guardian.

If you have insurance and are seeing one of our providers for confidential treatment, we will make sure that your insurance does not notify your parent or guardian of your visit. Please call us at 312.666.3494 if you have any questions about confidentiality.
