A Title X tag flags centers funded for confidential family-planning services; confirm current participation when you call.

ARcare Positive Connections in White Hall runs by appointment, so scheduling ahead means arriving to a visit that covers rapid HIV testing, STI treatment, PrEP, and HPV and hepatitis vaccines. The full panel at no fee, on a sliding scale absorbed entirely by the clinic.
When cost derails follow-through (skipped treatment, a prescription left unfilled, a second visit that never happens) ARcare Positive Connections removes that specific friction. Every service on the menu, from the rapid HIV test to ongoing STI treatment to PrEP, is provided at no fee to the patient.
ARcare Positive Connections offers interpretation services for non-English languages as a standing part of care, meaning someone managing PrEP adherence or walking through STI treatment details can do it in their own language, with the clinical conversation fully intact rather than abbreviated.
Ryan White Program funding at ARcare Positive Connections supports the operational infrastructure for HIV care (antiretroviral prescribing, viral load monitoring, and longitudinal medical management) so the same clinic that runs the rapid test also carries a patient through sustained HIV treatment without a handoff.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Jefferson County, the county that includes Redfield, compare with Arkansas and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~17% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#3 of 75 Arkansas counties for chlamydia, among the very highest in the state
| Infection | Jefferson County | Arkansas | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 1336.8 851 cases ▲ 131% | 579.6 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 507.4 323 cases ▲ 162% | 193.4 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 40.8 26 cases ▲ 40% | 29.2 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 25.1 16 cases ▲ 45% | 17.3 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 64.4 41 cases ▲ 34% | 48 | 29.5 |

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 Jefferson County, chlamydia has risen from 1039.3 to 1336.8 per 100,000 (29%), gonorrhea has fallen from 625.9 to 507.4 per 100,000 (19%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 26.8 to 40.8 per 100,000 (52%).

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 Jefferson County.
Local HIV snapshot
Federal priority area: Arkansas is one of the U.S. jurisdictions prioritized under the Ending the HIV Epidemic initiative: targeted federal funding to expand local HIV testing, PrEP, and prevention.
Jefferson County HIV care continuum (2023)
Jefferson County recorded 22.2 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 11.8 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Jefferson County residents living with HIV, 19.3% are in care · 17.6% 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.
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 Jefferson County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Along Highway 365 near Redfield City Park, plenty of younger adults are sorting out the practical rhythms of early adulthood. New jobs, shared households, relationships that are still taking shape. With average household sizes running above three people and a solid share of residents renting rather than owning, a lot of those households are genuinely busy ones, where calendars fill up fast and health appointments compete with everything else. That labor-force picture matters here.
A majority of working-age residents are employed, and with unemployment comparatively low, weekday clinic hours don't always line up with when people can actually leave work. Rent hovering close to a thousand dollars a month also means cost sensitivity is real, knowing upfront that options listed on this page offer low or no-cost testing removes a calculation that might otherwise delay the decision. For people in their twenties and early thirties, the years when STI transmission peaks, that kind of clarity tends to be the difference between making an appointment and letting it drift. But that's a solvable problem, and options listed on this page give enough variety in location and hours that one of them is likely to fit a realistic drive from the Harris Mountains side of town or anywhere else in Redfield.
Getting there
At 4.81/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Redfield 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 Arkansas 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 Arkansas, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Arkansas 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.
