Low barrier services for Ending the HIV Epidemic Initiative (EHE) in King County

Ending the HIV Epidemic in King County

Low-Barrier Services

Expanding the availability of low barrier HIV prevention and care services in our community is critical to ending the HIV epidemic in King County. Low barrier services include walk-in access to sexual health services, PrEP, HIV care, social, mental health, and substance use services. Some sites offer incentives to help people engage in HIV prevention or care when meeting their basic needs can otherwise make it too difficult to do so.

One additional low-barrier clinic will be opening in Kent Summer, 2023.
