LGBTQ Friendly Services

At HOPES, we provide judgment-free, culturally competent healthcare services for lesbians, gays, bisexuals, transgender, and queer individuals in our community. We believe that everyone should have access to quality healthcare in a safe and supportive environment.

We offer fast, free, confidential HIV and hepatitis C testing. Both tests involve a simple finger stick that tests for antibodies in the blood, and results are ready in 15-20 minutes.

Our Wellness Clinic offers integrated behavioral health counseling, including individual counseling, couples counseling, and substance use counseling.

Our LGBTQ Community Relations liaison can help connect you to LGBTQ resources in the community and get you linked into care at HOPES. To get in touch, contact Kim Nichols at knichols@nnhopes.org or (775) 997-7545.
