Fees & payment
Hendricks County Health Department in Danville is a public health department with STI testing built into its core mission: rapid HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and hepatitis C by appointment, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, on a sliding scale with no-fee options for all.
When cost sits between a person and treatment, infections go unmanaged and partners go untested. At Hendricks County Health Department, every service (testing, treatment, vaccines) is provided at no fee, so the decision to come in never hinges on what's in a wallet.
Many clinics leave non-English speakers to navigate the most sensitive parts of a visit without real support. Hendricks County Health Department provides interpretation services for non-English languages, so every exchange (history, results, treatment instructions) moves in a language the patient understands.
Missing a hepatitis C diagnosis means a separate appointment, a separate lab, and weeks of uncertainty that delay care. Hendricks County Health Department tests for hepatitis C alongside the standard bacterial panel and rapid HIV, so a single visit can surface infections that would otherwise go undetected until complications arise.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Hendricks County, the county that includes Avon, compare with Indiana and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~26% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#30 of 92 Indiana counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 67% of the state
| Infection | Hendricks County | Indiana | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 313.9 585 cases ▼ 36% | 491 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 71.4 133 cases ▼ 50% | 144 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 5.9 11 cases ▼ 32% | 8.7 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 8.6 16 cases ▼ 9% | 9.5 | 16 |

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.
Between 2020 and 2023 in Hendricks County, chlamydia has risen from 241.4 to 313.9 per 100,000 (30%), gonorrhea has fallen from 77.8 to 71.4 per 100,000 (8%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 2.3 to 5.9 per 100,000 (157%).
The 2020 dip reflects reduced pandemic-era screening, not lower transmission. Source: CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county, state & U.S., all-ages basis).
Community health context
Sources: CDC PLACES (ZIP), County Health Rankings, CDC/ATSDR SVI, HRSA HPSA, HRSA MUA/P, Neighborhood Atlas ADI. Lower insurance coverage, fewer routine checkups, and a thin primary-care ratio all raise the value of low-cost public clinics and at-home testing in Hendricks County.
Local HIV snapshot
Hendricks County HIV care continuum (2023)
Hendricks County recorded 12.9 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 11.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Hendricks County residents living with HIV, 84.9% are in care · 72.8% 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.
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 Hendricks County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Blue Heron Park sits off Avon Avenue on the kind of quiet suburban grid where most errands mean a car trip, and getting tested for STIs is no different. Avon's layout rewards drivers who plan ahead, so the clinics listed on this page matter precisely because they're spread across routes like US 36 and South Dan Jones Road rather than clustered downtown somewhere. The community here skews toward settled household life: most adults are married, households run large, and owner-occupied homes dominate the neighborhoods around Burnett Woods Nature Preserve. But that picture coexists with a meaningful share of people in their late teens and twenties, the years when STI transmission is most concentrated, and with unemployment running high enough that cost and schedule can genuinely complicate a clinic visit.
Avon's high-earner households cushion some of that, yet the 7-plus-percent without work means a notable slice of residents are watching every dollar, and at roughly $1,150 a month, renters here don't have much slack in the budget for anything that feels optional. The clinics on this page include sliding-scale and low-cost options specifically because that range matters. For younger Avon residents especially, knowing a test won't require burning a tank of gas on US 36 and a half-day of PTO is often what moves it from something considered to something completed.
Getting there
At 8.39/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Avon generally mean driving: plan on a car or rideshare to reach a clinic, and check each listing's hours and phone before you go.

Two things that actually depend on Indiana 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).
In Indiana, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Indiana 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.
