Get informed and stay healthy!
Can you talk to your doctor openly about your health?
Does your doctor answer all your questions and address your needs?
Do you know where to get free or low-cost health care?
This website provides you with information about health care providers and clinics that are dedicated to serving teens throughout NYC. These adolescent experts know that your needs are different than those of your parents and younger brothers and sisters. They want to answer all your questions about sex, HIV/AIDS, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), prevention, birth control, and other issues that are important to you. The services they provide are confidential, which means they won't tell your parents or guardians unless you want them to.
If you're facing an unplanned pregnancy, also see the Book of Choices for a list of providers in NYC who offer the range of options available to you.
