Adolescent Health Programs

Kentucky River District Health Department encourages teens to talk to their parents about their health. This includes sexual health. Although this may be uncomfortable or awkward, parents can provide support and understanding to help you deal with any issues you are experiencing.

Teens, however, can come to our clinics for STD/STI Testing and Treatment, Pregnancy Testing and Family Planning services without their parent or guardian. Your information will be kept confidential. We will not discuss your health information with anyone without your approval. We will only contact you by the methods you specify. So, if you don’t want the clinic to call your home or mail letters to your house, please let us know the best way to contact you.
