Available Services for Gonorrhea Cases
Some local health districts (LHDs) have STI (sexually transmitted infection) clinics located at their LHD where adolescents can be tested and treated for STIs at minimal or no cost. Planned Parenthood and other community based organizations have locations throughout Utah that also provide STI services at minimal cost. Condoms are available at these locations free of cost.
STI presentations are available through the Utah Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) upon request. DHHS also has educational pamphlets available.
Utah's consent of minor to treatment law allows adolescents 14 and older to be tested and treated for an STD without the consent of a parent.
