TEEN SERVICES

PPMW’s Teen Clinics are the centerpiece of our successful outreach and education efforts in our community. The DC Teen Clinic in Northeast Washington and the Hispanic Teen Clinic in Gaithersburg help young people prevent teen pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections and promote healthy relationships and lifestyles.

Our clinics represent a safe haven for these teenagers, where they gather in increasing numbers to access free, teen-friendly, and confidential reproductive healthcare information. PPMW staff answer their questions with medically accurate information, combating the inaccuracies they hear on the playground or in the lunchroom.

Through our efforts, thousands of teens receive valuable education on abstinence and contraception and information on relationships, self-esteem, and anger management.
