Whether you are managing PrEP long-term, working through hepatitis C treatment, or need the mpox vaccine, Alder Health Services in Harrisburg covers the full scope without a fee attached to any of it. A standing policy, not a program with an expiration date.
When a language gap exists at an STI clinic, the cost shows up as a missed diagnosis, a misunderstood treatment plan, or an appointment that never gets made. Alder Health Services in Harrisburg delivers care directly in American Sign Language and Spanish, so nothing gets lost between the provider and the person being treated.
Many clinics require parental involvement before extending STI care to younger patients, Title X funding is what changes that. As a Title X family planning provider, Alder Health Services in Harrisburg is required by law to keep those services confidential for minors, making it an option where others are not.

Planned Parenthood Keystone in Harrisburg prescribes PrEP for ongoing HIV prevention, PEP for post-exposure HIV management, and DoxyPEP, the doxycycline-based regimen for reducing bacterial STI risk after potential exposure.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Cumberland County, the county that includes New Cumberland, compare with Pennsylvania and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~25% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#30 of 67 Pennsylvania counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 55% of the state
| Infection | Cumberland County | Pennsylvania | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 229 620 cases ▼ 46% | 421.2 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 49.1 133 cases ▼ 66% | 144.7 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 7.4 20 cases ▼ 19% | 9.1 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 1.8 5 cases ▼ 83% | 10.3 | 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 Cumberland County, chlamydia has fallen from 251.3 to 229 per 100,000 (9%), gonorrhea has fallen from 50.1 to 49.1 per 100,000 (2%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 3.9 to 7.4 per 100,000 (90%).

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 Cumberland County.
Local HIV snapshot
Cumberland County HIV care continuum (2023)
Cumberland County recorded 3.9 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 8.3 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Cumberland County residents living with HIV, 76.2% are in care · 70.1% 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 Cumberland County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Drexel Hills carries the quiet rhythm of a borough where most households have been in place long enough to know their neighbors' routines, morning walks on Bridge Street, weeknight dinners with kids in school. That settled, owner-heavy character shapes how people think about healthcare: it can feel like something you schedule eventually, not urgently. But the portion of New Cumberland residents in their late teens and twenties, the years when STI transmission runs highest and testing habits are still being formed, often live outside that stability, renting at rates that leave little cushion for unexpected medical costs, even when a typical month's rent is already a careful calculation. Clinics aren't a short walk from Allendale or Green Lane Farms; someone without a car, or sharing one with a working household, has to plan around it.
With unemployment meaningfully elevated and a substantial share of the labor force working variable or full-time hours, a clinic that operates beyond standard business hours isn't a convenience. It's the actual condition for getting an appointment made. The providers listed on this page range in hours, fees, and distance, so the logistics can actually be matched to what someone's week looks like along Old York Road or across the Susquehanna.
Getting there
At 10.32/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in New Cumberland 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 Pennsylvania 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 Pennsylvania, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Pennsylvania 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.
