Grace Clinic in Kennewick operates entirely on a no-fee and sliding-scale donation model, covering gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, HIV, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and TB testing alongside treatment for bacterial STIs. Appointments required.
Grace Clinic charges nothing for any of its services, which means the full scope of testing, STI treatment, and vaccinations is available without a financial ceiling. A patient can address multiple concerns in a single appointment without weighing one against another.
Beyond the bacterial and HIV panel, Grace Clinic draws for both hepatitis B and hepatitis C, and its staff manages those diagnoses directly: hepatitis B vaccination is administered on-site, and hepatitis C care proceeds through the clinic rather than stopping at the antibody result.

Tri-Cities Community Health is a community health center in Pasco that pairs STI testing with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections like gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis. No second trip to fill a prescription. Fees run on a sliding scale, with Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance all accepted. Appointments are required. Care is delivered in Spanish.
When a patient leaves with instructions they can't fully parse, follow-through suffers. Doses get missed, partners go untreated, infections persist. At Tri-Cities Community Health in Pasco, STI care (testing, counseling, and treatment) is delivered directly in Spanish, so nothing critical gets lost between the appointment and what happens after it.
Walking out of a clinic with a clean gonorrhea and chlamydia result, while a hepatitis B or C infection goes undetected, means another appointment, another copay, and a longer gap before treatment begins. Tri-Cities Community Health in Pasco runs hepatitis B and C testing alongside the standard bacterial and HIV panel, so the picture from a single visit is complete.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Benton County, the county that includes Finley, compare with Washington and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~23% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#5 of 39 Washington counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 87% of the state
| Infection | Benton County | Washington | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 472.5 1,017 cases ▲ 33% | 354.4 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 114.3 246 cases ▼ 12% | 129.6 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 20 43 cases ▼ 6% | 21.3 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 9.8 21 cases ▼ 22% | 12.5 | 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 Benton County, chlamydia has fallen from 474.7 to 472.5 per 100,000 (0%), gonorrhea has fallen from 181.3 to 114.3 per 100,000 (37%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 15 to 20 per 100,000 (33%).

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 Benton County.
Local HIV snapshot
Benton County HIV care continuum (2023)
Benton County recorded 5.1 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 6.3 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Benton County residents living with HIV, 85.9% are in care · 78.8% 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 Benton County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Ainsworth carries the quiet rhythm of a place where most households own their homes and have done so for years, the kind of stability that shapes daily routines around school runs, yard work, and commutes along WA 397 rather than around navigating a rental market. That rooted quality is genuine, but it can also mean that anything requiring a separate trip to an unfamiliar office gets postponed indefinitely. With average households running well above two people and more than half of adults married or partnered, sexual health conversations touch more than one person's calendar, and the practical question of when and how to get screened is rarely just a solo decision. That matters especially for younger adults in their late teens and twenties, a group whose years of forming new relationships overlap exactly with the ages when STI transmission is most common.
Benton County's own STI data confirm the pattern. For anyone in Finley whose work schedule already sits below full-time, or who is between jobs entirely, coordinating around clinic hours can be the whole obstacle. Two Rivers Park sits just off the corridor where WA 397 meets local traffic, and for residents already heading that direction, pulling up this page's clinic list before leaving the house means the appointment can happen on the same trip.
Getting there
At 8.35/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Finley 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 Washington 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 Washington, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Washington 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.
