Community Health Partnerships of Illinois in Princeville runs appointments for gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, TB, and HIV testing, with same-visit treatment for bacterial STIs. Fees follow a sliding scale, and Medicare, Medicaid, and most insurance are accepted. Care is delivered in Spanish.
Spanish isn't routed through a secondary channel: it's the language staff use to take histories, explain results, and discuss treatment plans. That operational fact means nothing is lost between a diagnosis and the conversation that follows it.
Beyond gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV, the clinic tests for hepatitis B and hepatitis C, and hepatitis B vaccination is available on-site. Hepatitis C treatment, when indicated, is managed through the clinic rather than handed off elsewhere.

Solvera Health in Peoria runs on a sliding scale and accepts Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance, making the full panel (HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, hepatitis A, B, and C, and TB) available at a cost that adjusts to income. Appointments are required; bacterial STIs are treated the same visit.
Solvera Health prescribes all three chemoprevention tools: tenofovir-based PrEP for ongoing HIV prevention, PEP for post-exposure HIV suppression, and DoxyPEP for bacterial STI reduction after potential exposure. Having all three anchored to a single provider means dosing adjustments, follow-up labs, and switches between regimens don't require starting over with a new prescriber.
Many clinics confirm a hepatitis C antibody result and stop there, leaving patients to find a specialist elsewhere for the antiviral regimens that actually clear the infection. Solvera Health in Peoria carries that treatment on-site, diagnosis and the direct-acting antivirals that eliminate the virus are handled within the same practice.
Leaving hepatitis off an initial panel means a separate order, a separate visit, and, when results are positive, a gap in care that can stretch weeks. Solvera Health tests hepatitis A, B, and C alongside HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and TB from the start, so nothing waits on a second round of bloodwork.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Peoria County, the county that includes Dunlap, compare with Illinois and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~21% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#2 of 102 Illinois counties for chlamydia, among the very highest in the state
| Infection | Peoria County | Illinois | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 875.4 1,554 cases ▲ 57% | 557.7 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 415.2 737 cases ▲ 105% | 202.3 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 18.6 33 cases ▲ 60% | 11.6 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 9.6 17 cases ▼ 12% | 10.9 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 27.6 49 cases ▲ 6% | 26 | 29.5 |
Rates per 100,000 population, 2023. Source: CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county, state & U.S., all-ages basis). Population figures: U.S. Census Bureau ACS. These figures are the latest available surveillance estimates. Bars are scaled to the highest rate shown.
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 Peoria County, chlamydia has risen from 868.9 to 875.4 per 100,000 (1%), gonorrhea has fallen from 674.3 to 415.2 per 100,000 (38%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 7.7 to 18.6 per 100,000 (142%).

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 Peoria County.
Local HIV snapshot
Peoria County HIV care continuum (2023)
Peoria County recorded 11.5 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 14.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Peoria County residents living with HIV, 92% are in care · 84.5% 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 Peoria County tests for syphilis.

Local resources & officials
Data & references
Local context
Copperfield Park and Stone Water Park anchor a community that feels genuinely settled: high homeownership, households that run large by Illinois standards, and nearly half of all residents earning well into six figures. That stability is real, but it shapes who has the easiest time scheduling preventive care and who quietly doesn't. The roughly two-in-ten households that rent here pay modest rates by regional standards, yet those residents are often younger adults still building careers: exactly the people in their late teens and twenties for whom a midweek appointment competes with shift work, childcare, or a second job. For a workforce where participation is strong and unemployment is low, a lunchtime slot or an extended-hours appointment can be the practical difference between a test that's scheduled and one that keeps getting moved.
Cost shapes things differently depending on the household. For a renter at that typical monthly rate, even a modest copay or out-of-pocket fee is worth comparing across the options listed here. Several offer sliding-scale or no-cost visits that make that comparison worth taking a minute with before booking.

Two things that actually depend on Illinois 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 Illinois, a minor aged 12 or older can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Illinois 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.
