How to read these listings
Listings tagged Community health center are federally funded health centers and rural clinics that treat everyone regardless of insurance or ability to pay: required to bill on a sliding fee scale and provide confidential care, and in many states minors may consent to their own STI testing. A Title X tag flags centers funded for confidential family-planning services; confirm current participation when you call.

Beyond the standard bacterial and HIV workup, Amoskeag Health's panel is staffed to draw and process hepatitis A, B, and C antibody tests at the same appointment: meaning a clinician reviews the full picture of bloodborne exposure in one visit, and on-site treatment for hepatitis C is available rather than deferred.
Title X Means Minors Are Seen Confidentially by Law

On-Staff Interpretation, Not a Callback System

Reading these numbers: reported case rates only count infections that were actually tested for and diagnosed, so they track local screening effort as much as true spread: a higher rate can reflect more testing, a lower one less. Either way, most STIs cause no symptoms, so treat the figures above as context rather than a verdict, and test on the CDC's schedule regardless of how your area looks.

Hillsborough HIV care continuum (2023)
Hillsborough recorded 4.6 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 2.8 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Hillsborough residents living with HIV, 78.6% are in care · 72.6% are virally suppressed. Early, routine testing is what moves these numbers: it is the entry point to PrEP, treatment, and viral suppression.
Sources: AIDSVu (Emory/Gilead) · CDC AHEAD · CDC AtlasPlus · CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county care continuum). The CDC recommends everyone aged 13–64 test for HIV at least once: every lab and clinic listed above offers HIV testing, and free rapid HIV testing is available at a local health department.
Pregnant or planning to be?Congenital syphilis is the fastest-rising STI: what to test, and when
Congenital syphilis, passed from parent to baby in pregnancy, is the fastest-rising STI in the country. U.S. cases climbed from 2,163 in 2020 to 3,882 in 2023. It is almost entirely preventable: the CDC recommends a syphilis test at the first prenatal visit, and every clinic and lab listed for Hillsborough tests for syphilis.

Manchester households lean toward the independent side: fewer than four in ten adults here are married, and the average home holds just over three people, which often means roommates, partners, or adult children navigating health decisions on their own rather than as a unit. That solo-decision dynamic matters: when no one else in the apartment on Beech Street is nudging you toward a clinic visit, screening depends entirely on whether the process feels worth your own time and effort. With most residents renting, at rates that leave real money spoken for each month, discretionary health spending gets weighed against everything else. The roughly one in four households that clears a higher income threshold has more flexibility; others are calibrating carefully.
For the large share of younger adults in Manchester, people in their late teens and twenties who move around the city's neighborhoods like Hallsville and the East Side with some frequency, that cost calculation is a recurring one. The listed options on this page exist precisely because one clinic's hours or fees won't work for everyone. Getting around Manchester without a car means planning around bus routes and commutes on Elm Street rather than walking distance, so the location and hours of each clinic aren't incidental details. They're what determines whether someone actually goes.

Confidentiality & consent in New HampshireMinor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately
Two things that actually depend on New Hampshire law: who can consent, and whether partners can be treated without their own visit. Everything else about testing privately is the same nationwide (see below).
Can a minor consent on their own?
In New Hampshire, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Can my partner be treated too? (EPT)
New Hampshire permits Expedited Partner Therapy (EPT): if you test positive for chlamydia or gonorrhea, your provider can give you medication (or a prescription) to pass to your partner, no separate exam or appointment needed for them.
Keeping a test private works the same in every state. Whether an STD test shows on insurance (the EOB), how to test anonymously, and self-pay options that leave no insurance trail don’t change by location.
