Introduction

What are the STI test options in Gary,IN?

The 9th largest city in Indiana, Gary, has actually experienced some population decline since the 1960s. Down about 55% from their peak population, yet Lake County (where Gary is located) is still one of the highest counties in the state for sexually transmitted disease rates. By the end of 2017, Lake County had a total of 1,214 people living with HIV/AIDS. With 48 of those being newly diagnosed cases for the year. 

New cases of chlamydia in 2016, while still high, was the lowest Lake County had seen since before 2012.

2,193 new diagnoses were given out, putting their rate at 449.7 per 100,000 people. It was the same story for gonorrhea, with 2016 having lower numbers than the previous 5 years. The total number of new cases: 567. Rate of occurrence: 116.3 per 100,000 people living in Lake County. Unfortunately, syphilis didn’t get the memo. The Gary area reported 43 new cases of (primary & secondary) syphilis, at a rate of 8.7 per 100K. A higher rate than the last 5 years and double the rate for 2012 (4.3 per 100K). 

If you are looking for testing in Gary, the health department is on 5th Avenue. There’s a Planned Parenthood on Broadway. They test for the following STDs: chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, herpes, genital warts, trichomoniasis, bacterial vaginosis (BV), and HIV. The Women’s Center of Northwest Indiana offers screening for both chlamydia and gonorrhea. While it is often free STD testing, there may be some lab fees. There’s also an HIV testing center over in Hammond called Aliveness Project the NWI.

Sexual Health Education

STD Testing and Sexual Health Education in Gary, IN

There Is no law or policy within the state of Indiana that requires schools to teach sexual health education. The Department of Education has recommended that schools include sexual health education in their curriculum but it is not required. If it is taught, abstinence outside of marriage is required to be the primary focus when discussing prevention. In addition, curriculum must state that a monogamous marriage is the best way to prevent STI’s.

There are many critics that disagree with this form of education. In addition to the threat of STI’s and HIV/AIDS, teen pregnancies are growing. Nearly 50% of these are unintended and critics blame the lack of sexual health education within the school system. Many believe that if students were more informed the numbers would drastically decrease across the board.

Outside the academic arena there are many organizations that are attempting to educate the public about STI’s and HIV/AIDS. One such group is Positive Teen Health, which is a 501c3 nonprofit that provides methods to live a healthy lifestyle to individuals and educators alike. In addition, they have created outreach programs to work teens one on one. Since their beginning in 1993 they have been able to reach over 120,000 teens.

The Planned Parenthood located in Gary has resources available both at their offices Online they offer an educational section which discusses various STI’s as well as HIV/AIDS.

They are also the poorest demographic with nearly 1,131 Black, non-Hispanics living below the poverty level. The large Black population in correlation with amount that lives below poverty level could possibly play a part in why so many Black, non-Hispanics are affected with STI’s and HIV/AIDS.

Finally, poor health care could also play a part in why so many Black women are impacted with STI’s and HIV/AIDS. In Gary, 3,938 non-Black women receive preventive services, while only 857 Black women receive those same services. Most of these women are also older- between the ages of 67 and 69.
