Whitman Walker Health was established in 1978 to provide health care services to the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community. The institution was an outgrowth of the Washington Free Clinic’s Gay Men’s STD Clinic which opened in 1973.
For more than three decades, the Clinic has been renowned – locally, nationally and internationally – for the high-quality, culturally sensitive care it provides. This work remains critical in an area with the highest HIV infection rate in the country.
Today, the Clinic provides health care to thousands of people in the community with specialty care for the LGBT community and those living with HIV/AIDS. The service areas include
- comprehensive outpatient medical services
- at-cost medications provided through an on-site pharmacy
- legal support including entitlements assistance, estate planning, discrimination litigation and more
- behavioral health care services providing mental health care, addiction care and day treatment
- more than 13,000 anonymous and confidential HIV tests and counseling.
