How to read these listings
Listings tagged Community health center are federally funded health centers and rural clinics that treat everyone regardless of insurance or ability to pay: required to bill on a sliding fee scale and provide confidential care, and in many states minors may consent to their own STI testing. A Title X tag flags centers funded for confidential family-planning services; confirm current participation when you call.

Every Service Carries Zero Cost Here
When cost becomes the reason someone delays a follow-up or skips a second visit, the gap between testing and care widens. Sometimes dangerously. At Community Health Centers, every service, from the initial test to treatment to prevention counseling, is provided at no fee, so that gap never opens.
PrEP and PEP Available, Managed on Ongoing Basis
Community Health Centers prescribes both PrEP and PEP directly, meaning patients leave with an actual prevention plan rather than a name to call. That continuity makes it far more likely the prescription gets filled and the regimen actually starts.
Hepatitis B and C Testing Extends the Standard Panel
Clinics running the basic four (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, HIV) leave hepatitis B and C undetected in people who may have real exposure risk. Community Health Centers tests for both, alongside TB, so chronic viral infections don't slip past an otherwise thorough visit.
Planned Parenthood of Northern New England in Williston runs STI care alongside full family planning services, testing for HIV, hepatitis B and C, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and herpes on a sliding-scale fee with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections; appointments are required.

On-Staff Interpretation, Not a Scheduled Add-On
When a patient books an appointment, interpretation for non-English languages is built into the care model. Not arranged as a separate request after the fact. The clinic staffs or coordinates live interpretation so that clinical conversation, including test results and treatment instructions, happens in real time without a gap.
Title X Makes Minor Confidentiality a Legal Guarantee
As a Title X clinic, Planned Parenthood of Northern New England provides legally confidential family planning and STI services to minors. Meaning those services cannot be disclosed without consent. That protection is enforceable, not a policy preference, which makes it meaningful for younger patients weighing whether to come in at all.
PrEP and PEP Prescribed Directly at This Clinic
For someone without a regular provider, or anyone who'd rather handle HIV prevention in one place, Planned Parenthood of Northern New England prescribes and manages both PrEP and PEP directly, so the medication, the monitoring labs, and the ongoing follow-up all stay in one clinical relationship rather than scattered across separate offices.
Beyond the dedicated testing centers above: at-home kits by mail, hospital labs certified for STI testing, local clinicians who can order a panel during a regular visit, pharmacies for self-test kits and prescriptions, and online PrEP & treatment.
The nearest testing center is about 7 miles away, if you'd rather skip the trip, an at-home kit ships to Underhill, you collect the sample privately, and mail it back to a CLIA-certified lab. Results come online in days, with a clinician available if anything is positive. Same labs as a clinic, no waiting room, and you can read how accurate at-home STD tests are before you order.
Want a free option first? The CDC-supported TakeMeHome program mails free at-home HIV self-test kits, and, in many areas, free STI kits, to your door, with no insurance or payment needed. The paid kits below add broader panels and faster turnaround.

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.

Pregnant or planning to be?Congenital syphilis is the fastest-rising STI: what to test, and when
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 Chittenden County tests for syphilis.

Underhill's working population (farmers, builders, trades people, families juggling school runs and seasonal work) moves through the year with little margin for detours. Health needs that require a quiet conversation and a straightforward result fit best into that rhythm when they're close and genuinely confidential. STI testing in and around Underhill is listed on this page, and the clinics and urgent-care providers that offer it understand that people here value directness: you come in, get screened, and leave with answers you can trust won't circle back through town. Young adults in particular (whether they're settling into the community, working their way through early careers, or raising children of their own) benefit from knowing where to go without announcement.
The testing itself is routine, the results are yours alone, and the providers listed here know that confidentiality isn't theater; it's how people actually use health care. Because so many residents own their homes and build lives here over decades, a health decision made quietly today stays quiet. That matters when you're deciding whether to get screened, when you want to know your status before a relationship changes, or when you simply want to move forward without explaining yourself to anyone else first.

Confidentiality & consent in VermontMinor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately
Two things that actually depend on Vermont 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).
Can a minor consent on their own?
In Vermont, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Can my partner be treated too? (EPT)
Vermont 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.
