Hepatitis A and B vaccines are available on-site, and hepatitis B and C diagnoses move into managed care rather than a same-day treatment model.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Grant County, the county that includes Upland, compare with Indiana and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~49% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#10 of 92 Indiana counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 89% of the state
| Infection | Grant County | Indiana | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 504.5 334 cases ▲ 3% | 491 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 154.1 102 cases ▲ 7% | 144 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 3 2 cases ▼ 66% | 8.7 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 3 2 cases ▼ 68% | 9.5 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 6 4 cases ▼ 61% | 15.2 | 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 Grant County, chlamydia has fallen from 616.4 to 504.5 per 100,000 (18%), gonorrhea has fallen from 255 to 154.1 per 100,000 (40%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 1.5 to 3 per 100,000 (100%).

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 Grant County.
Local HIV snapshot
Grant County HIV care continuum (2022)
Grant County recorded 8.9 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2022), against 11.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Grant County residents living with HIV, 87.7% are in care · 80.8% 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 Grant County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Faith and Learning Plaza sits at the quiet center of Upland, Indiana. The kind of place that feels settled, unhurried, almost unchanged. But getting around without a car here is genuinely difficult, and for the roughly one in three households that rents rather than owns, the calculus of a weekday appointment somewhere off SR 26 involves borrowed transportation, shifted hours, or simply not going. That matters in a community where a near-majority of residents are young adults still forming relationships and navigating their sexual health for the first time.
With labor-force participation below two-thirds and average household size running above three people, many residents are sharing costs and schedules with others, which makes a $611 median rent feel tight and a half-day away from work feel costly. The options listed on this page span enough variety in hours and fees that a working adult in a multi-person household can usually find something that doesn't require sacrificing a full shift. Grant County's STI rates make routine screening worth building into an ordinary month, not an annual afterthought. For the roughly one in five Upland households earning above $100k, out-of-pocket costs are rarely the barrier.
Distance and appointment availability are. For everyone else, the sliding-scale and no-cost options listed here are the practical starting point.
Getting there
At 7.35/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Upland 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 Indiana 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 Indiana, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Indiana 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.
